The Albania international scored after just 23 seconds against Italy at Euro 2024 in the summer.

It was the quickest goal in European Championship history, though sadly for Bajrami, his goal failed to matter as Italy came back to win 2-1.

Though thankfully for Bajrami, his goal helped Rangers get off to the perfect start in Europe’s second-tier competition.

After pressure from the hosts, Rangers doubled their lead through Ross McCausland’s strike in the 76th minute, which came in off the post.

Malmo never looked like getting back in the game following Rangers’ second, with Henrik Rydstrom’s men failing to register a shot on target from their seven attempts on goal.

Speaking to TNT Sports after the 2-0 win, Rangers skipper James Tavernier said: “We had the chances, first half and second half. Delighted we’ve come here and got the clean sheet.

“We dug deep to limit their chances. We knew they’d be strong on set-pieces and we dealt with them very well. Three points, great start.

“We’re continuing to work hard in training and we’re getting stronger as a team.

“We’ve got a young squad and they are gelling really well. I thought it was a great display from us.

“Our fans always require us to win games no matter who it is. We always want to put a performance in and we did that.”
