THE DEBUTANTS The cities hosting the Euros

It simply had to be a Goran Pandev goal that sent North Macedonia into their first-ever major championship, at Georgia’s expense. Pandev is eight years older than his country itself (torn out of former Yugoslavia in 1991) and the former Inter Milan striker has the most goals (37) and caps (118) for his young republic. The other debutants are Finland, who qualified after Teemu Pukki scored twice in the playoff against Liechtenstein.
