Germany secured a commanding 2-0 victory against France in a recent friendly match, with Florian Wirtz making history by scoring just seven seconds into the game. This remarkable feat marks the fastest goal ever for Germany, surpassing Lukas Podolski’s nine-second record set back in 2013. Under the management of Julian Nagelsmann, Germany’s win over France not only boosts their morale but also sets high expectations as they prepare to host the 2024 European Championship.
Toni Kroos, who came out of international retirement for the European Championships, proved his worth by assisting Wirtz’s lightning-fast goal. The German Soccer Federation confirmed this milestone, emphasizing its significance in German football history. Kai Havertz added to Germany’s victory with a goal in the 49th minute, sealing the win against France. It marks Germany’s second consecutive victory over France and their third win in the last 11 encounters between the two sides. Meanwhile, in another friendly match at Wembley Stadium, Brazil clinched a 1-0 win over England, with 17-year-old Andric scoring the decisive goal. Andric’s achievement as the youngest international footballer to score at Wembley adds to the excitement, as he is set to join Real when he turns 18. His goal in the 80th minute secured Brazil’s victory, making it his first international goal after coming on as a substitute in the 71st minute.
These electrifying performances set the stage for an exciting football season, with emerging talents and seasoned players making their mark on the international stage.
