The Georgian fans knew what was needed. “BELIEVE” was written in capital letters on white cloths in their corner. Belief. What else would help Georgia, a first-time European Championship participant, against the big favorite Spain, the team that has not conceded a goal in this European Championship so far?

And then, after 15 minutes of constant Spanish pressure, during which the very good goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili had already had to save a few times, the Georgians entered the opposing half for the umpteenth time? For the second, maybe the third time? The right-back Otar Kakabadze, known as Kaka, ran along the side and because the Spanish penalty area had been a restricted area until then, he shot the ball into the middle. Georgian superstar Khvitscha Kvarazkhelia stormed in. Robin Le Normand got to the ball a step ahead of him on the five-meter line, but it bounced off his hip and into the goal. Spain’s first goal of the tournament was an own goal. Some Georgians in the stands cried.
