Answer

It's like saying it took 1 soldier to kill Hitler in WW2.

True, only 1 soldier needs to pull the trigger and Hitler is dead.

But can 1 soldier alone conquer Normandy, rest of France, Germany, and breach Berlin?

Fertilization is a team effort. Individual sperm does fertilize the ovum, but it takes millions of them in order for that one lucky guy to even reach the ovum.

Only one sperm is needed to fertilize an ovum. The fusion of the sperm and the egg results in the formation of a zygote, which is the first step in the development of a new organism.
