Have any footballers ever scored with the first touch of their careers? | The Knowledge

The Guardian's trivia column explores whether footballers have ever scored with the very first touch of their professional careers. Examples cited include Alan Smith scoring for Leeds United against Liverpool, Raphael Meade netting with a bicycle kick for Arsenal against Panathinaikos, and Luke Medley scoring a half-volley on his Bradford City debut. Additional examples include Ibra Sekajja for Crystal Palace, Jack Aitchison for Celtic, and Michael Ricketts for Walsall.

The feature also covers other football trivia, noting that Brian Brobbey became only the sixth player in Premier League history to score a hat-trick on the losing side. Furthermore, it examines poorly rated European stadiums on Google, alongside Spain's rare games without majority possession.
