ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Within minutes of his Greece debut last week, 17-year-old Konstantinos Karetsas made an impact with successive shots against Scotland in a Nations League playoff.
Late Sunday, he announced himself to the football world.
Starring among a crop of young Greeks who swept past Scotland 3-0, Karetsas delivered his moment of magic in the 42nd minute to become his country’s youngest goal scorer with a perfectly-timed lob over experienced goalkeeper Craig Gordon.
