Teenage Phenomenon Arda Guler Breaks Euro Tournament Record with Quick Goal in Turkey vs. Austria Match

In the recent European Championship knockout stage match between Turkey and Austria, Arda Guler made history by setting a new record in the Euro tournament. Guler scored the quickest goal in the history of the tournament after just 57 seconds, putting Turkey in a commanding 1-0 lead. However, Austria fought back with Michael Gregoritsch scoring a goal in the 66th minute to make it 1-1.

Despite the pressure, a crucial save from Mert Gunok in stoppage time secured Turkey’s spot in the quarter-finals of Euro 2024. Real Madrid forward Guler played a vital role in Turkey’s victory, delivering two perfectly placed corners that led to his team’s goals. By assisting Demiral’s goal, Guler became only the third teenager to both score and assist in the same Euro, joining the ranks of Rooney and Ronaldo.

Guler had previously found the back of the net in Turkey’s 3-1 win over Georgia, echoing Rooney and Ronaldo’s feats from Euro 2004. With their impressive performance against Austria, Turkey is now set to face off against Netherlands in Berlin. The winner will advance to play either England or Switzerland in the semi-finals, promising an exciting continuation of their journey in this tournament.
