Georges Mikautadze scored Gerorgia’s first-ever European Championship goal in the Group F opener of Euro 2024 against Turkey on Tuesday.

This is Gerogia’s first-ever appearance in the history of the tournament. Mikautadze’s 32nd-minute strike cancelled out Mert Müldür opener earlier in the half.

Two minutes after the first goal, Turkey’s Kenan Yildiz thought he had doubled the lead but his goal was ruled offside after VAR checks.
