In the early morning of June 19, Beijing time, in the first game of Group F of the European Cup, Turkey defeated Georgia 3:1 and successfully got off to a good start; Turkey had two goals in this game, both of which were very exciting, both of which were long-range shots from the periphery, and the 19-year-old genius from Real Madrid was also announced, and it was his goal that gave Turkey the fruits of victory.
In recent years, Turkey has also emerged a group of young talents, among the 24 teams participating in the European Championship, Turkey is second only to the Czech Republic in average age, among which the representative young players are Juventus's Yilmaz and Real Madrid's Güler; Compared to Yilmaz who came from Bayern's youth academy and was promoted to the Juventus first team, Guler's growth in Fenerbahce academy was promoted to the first team in 2021 and contributed 3 goals and 4 assists in 14 games; In the 22-23 season, Güller went one step further, handing over 6 goals and 6 assists in 33 games.
With the emerging talent and excellent performance, Guller has also won the attention of many European giants, including the Premier League teams and La Liga, and Barcelona reached an agreement with Gueller last summer; Real Madrid made a one-time transfer fee of 20 million euros and successfully intercepted Hu, bringing Guller to the Bernabeu. Compared with the highlight performance of Bellingham, who joined at the same time, Guler's official Real Madrid debut was not officially ushered in until the second half of the season due to injury problems.
Over the course of the season, Güller played 12 times for Real Madrid, but he still contributed 6 goals in a limited time, including 5 goals in La Liga, becoming the most efficient player in La Liga this season; In addition to the stats, Guler's movements, passes and performances on the field are all unleashing his talent; At the end of the season, Güller was unexpectedly named in Turkey's squad for the European Championships.
In the case of a draw between the two sides, in the 65th minute of the game, Güler's goal was visually shocking, his shot was powerful and heavy, flying into the corner of the goal at a very fast speed, although Georgian goalkeeper Mamardashvili reacted, but it was too late to touch the ball. According to UEFA's real-time official calculations, Güller shot at a distance of 26 meters from the goal, and the shot was shot at a speed of up to 118 kilometers per hour!
The goal was also significant for Güler, who first became Turkey's youngest European Championship goalscorer at the age of 19 years and 114 days. The second also surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo in 2004 (19 years and 128 days) to become the youngest player to score on his debut at the European Championship. Third: 19 years and 114 days old fifth in the list of young players scoring goals at the European Championships. Interestingly, with this goal, Güller has already surpassed Mbappe in the number of goals scored in the European Championships, who has failed to score a goal in five games.
Seeing Guler's excellent performance, it must be the happiest Real Madrid fans, Kroos confirmed his retirement, and Modric entered the later years of his career; But the Real Madrid midfielder is not worried about personnel problems at all, after Valverde, Camavinga, Bellingham, Güller has also been announced, and Ancelotti will also face happy troubles.
