There was a lot of talk about Xherdan Shaqiri before the start of Euro 2024, given that he disappeared from European football, but everyone expects him to shine with the Swiss national team, as he always does in international tournaments.
Throughout his career, Shaqiri scored 5 goals in 12 World Cup matches with Switzerland, as well as 4 other goals in 9 Euro matches.
The common denominator in the goals of the former Bayern Munich and Liverpool star with his country is that they are always wonderful and pleasing to the viewers, perhaps the most notable of which was against Poland from a double goal in Euro 2016.
Shaqiri did not participate in Switzerland’s first Euro match against Hungary, which ended with a 3-1 victory for Murat Yakin’s squad.
The 32-year-old returned to participate with his country in the Euro, after starting the match against Scotland in the second round of the group stage, to score another global goal that joins his series of wonderful goals in international competitions.
The Chicago Fire player took advantage of a defensive error by Scotland to shoot a powerful ball with his left hand that was neither blocked nor returned, but it went into the net and gave his country the equalizer.
It is noteworthy that Shaqiri became the first player active in the American League to score a goal in the Euro competitions.
We leave you with the wonderful goal from Shaqiri…
