8 seconds: Augsburg scores fastest Bundesliga goal after Manuel Neuer blunder
In a remarkable Bundesliga encounter between Augsburg and Bayern Munich on Saturday, Augsburg's Robin Fellhauer scored what may be the fastest goal in the league's history. The goal was registered an astonishing 8 seconds after the kick-off. Opta, the official stats provider, confirmed this goal as the quickest ever in the German top division since its inception in 1963.
The record had been previously held jointly by Kevin Volland, who scored for Hoffenheim against Bayern in 2015 after nine seconds, and Karim Bellarabi, whose goal for Bayer Leverkusen against Dortmund in 2014 also took nine seconds. The goal was scored when Bayern Munich's goalkeeper Manuel Neuer made a mistake, allowing Fellhauer to intercept the ball and score.
