Germany: Albania has scored the fastest ever goal at a European Championship - after just 22 seconds.
Nedim Bajrami capitalized on an errant throw-in by Italy to smash a rising shot inside the near post in Dortmund on Saturday.
The previous quickest goal in the competition was by Dmitri Kirichenko of Russia after 67 seconds in 2004.
