  "account": "Augsburg midfielder Jan Fellhauer revealed the team's strategy behind his astonishing goal against Bayern at the WWK Arena. In just eight seconds, Fellhauer broke the previous record of nine seconds, jointly held by Kevin Volland and Karim Bellarabi. The hosts had discussed Bayern's approach before the match, with Fellhauer specifically instructed to anticipate their kick-off routine and prevent Alphonso Davies from blocking his run towards goalkeeper Manuel Neuer. Fellhauer explained to Bild, \"We discussed very clearly before the game what Bayern’s kickoff routine would be: they would play the ball back to Manuel Neuer, who would then launch it forward. So my job in that situation was not to let Alphonso Davies block me off, but to keep running through and prevent the goalkeeper from playing the ball with ease.\" The goal came after Augsburg played the ball back to Neuer immediately after kick-off, and the experienced goalkeeper was unable to contend with Fellhauer's advancing pressure. The goal shattered the long-standing record, shared by Volland and Bellarabi, and Augsburg took an astonishing early lead. Despite the historic opener, Bayern fought back twice, ultimately claiming a 2-2 draw.",
