Augsburg's Robin Fellhauer scored the fastest goal in Bundesliga history, 8 seconds after kickoff against Bayern Munich.
Augsburg's Robin Fellhauer scored what appears to be the fastest goal in Bundesliga history on Saturday, finding the net just 8 seconds after kickoff against Bayern Munich in Augsburg, Germany.
Bayern kicked off the game and played the ball back to goalkeeper Manuel Neuer. Fellhauer closed in and intercepted Neuer's attempt at a chipped clearance, then tapped the ball into the empty net. Stats provider Opta said it was the fastest goal ever scored in the German top division since its formation in 1963.
The previous record was jointly held by Kevin Volland, who needed nine seconds to score for Hoffenheim against Bayern in 2015, and Karim Bellarabi, whose goal for Bayer Leverkusen against Borussia Dortmund in 2014 also took nine seconds. The Bundesliga recognizes goals to the nearest second.
