Xherdan Shaqiri becomes first MLS player to score in Euros with incredible goal vs. Scotland

The Xherdan Shaqiri goal vs Scotland during the 1-1 draw with Switzerland made history as the first goal at the Euros scored by a player who plays in Major League Soccer.

The Chicago Fire man has a habit of scoring ridiculous goals when he has a Switzerland shirt on, and he kept that tradition alive with a screamer into the upper 90 to bring his side level.

Goals don’t get much better than this.

Watch: Portugal score dramatic 92nd minute winner to avoid shock draw vs. Czechia

Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal survived a massive scare from Czechia with a 2-1 victory in their Euro 2024 opener. With all the star power on the field for Portugal, their winning goal came from the unlikeliest of sources as Francisco Conceicao scored his first international goal.

We can’t decide which looked worse: Kylian Mbappé’s miss or Landon Donovan’s hair

France secured an unconvincing 1-0 victory vs. Austria on Monday and two moments really stood out. One was an unusual Kylian Mbappé miss and the other was an even more shocking Landon Donovan hair on air.

Monday’s game was Donovan and broadcast partner Ian Darke’s third game in charge of this Euros. Fans hardly, if at all, got to see the two men in the broadcast booth during the first games. They were on the screen on Monday and good goly Donovan’s hair was something.
