Yildiz beats Del Piero becoming youngest Champions League goal scorer for Juventus

Del Piero had scored his first Champions League goal in a similar fashion in 1995 in an away game at Borussia Dortmund, becoming the youngest goal scorer in the competition for the Serie A giants.

However, Yildiz didn’t only emulate the club legend and his role model, but he also beat him, becoming the youngest player to score for Juventus in the Champions League.

As reported by Opta on X, formerly Twitter, Del Piero was 20 years and 308 days old when he scored that iconic goal in Dortmund, while Yildiz found the net at 19 years and 136 days.

Football Italia is among the accredited media at the Allianz Stadium tonight. You can follow the game as it happens, plus Milan vs Liverpool on the Liveblog.
