The First Time ….., Part Three

1-The First Time an Oriundi represented Italy was on January 18, 1920, when Ermano Aebi represented Italy in a Friendly vs. France (9 to 4 win).
Aebi’s father was Swiss though he was born in Italy.
He also scored three goals in this match, therefore he is the first Oriundi to score for Italy as well.

2- The First Time that a pair of brothers appeared and won in the World Cup was in 1954 with West Germany’s Walter brothers (Fritz and Ottmar).
The second pair of brothers were England’s Charlton brothers (Jackie and Bobby) in 1966.

  1. Kiss's 7 minute hat-trick is still the fastest during World Cup Finals tournament.
