Portuguese goalkeeper Diogo Costa made history at the European Championships after yesterday's match of his national team in the 1/4 finals of Euro 2024 against Slovenia (0:0, on penalties - 3:0).
The 24-year-old goalkeeper became the first player to convert three penalty kicks in the penalty shootout of a Euro match. In addition, no one in the history of the European Championship has ever managed to miss a penalty shootout before.
It should be noted that former Dynamo Kyiv midfielder Benjamin Verbic took part in setting these two records in one way or another: he was one of those in the Slovenian national team (and the third in a row), whose shot from the spot was dealt with by Kosta.
