EURO 2024: Wirtz, Musiala On Target As Germany Smash Scotland In Opener

The Germany wonderkids, Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz on target as the host smashed Scotland in Euro 2024 opening match at Allianz Arena.

In the tenth minute, Germany took the lead quickly after Florian Wirtz received the ball on the edge of the penalty area and put a fantastic effort in the bottom corner.

Nine minutes later, after some brilliant build-up play by the home team, they doubled their lead thanks to a strong strike from Jamal Musiala.

By the half, the score was 3-0 thanks to a penalty kick from Kai Havertz, which was given in response to Ryan Porteous’s tackle on Ilkay Gundogan, which resulted in the defender being sent off.

After receiving the ball on the outskirts of the penalty area, Niclas Füllkrug scored with a powerful strike in the 68th minute to make it four.

Antonio Rudiger’s own goal late in the game gave Scotland a consolation goal, but it was insignificant because Emre Can’s curling goal deep into extra time gave the hosts a decisive victory.

Bayern Munich star, Jamal Musiala was named man of the match after scoring one goal and has most take-on in the match.
