Fellhauer sets the Bundesliga record for fastest goal

Augsburg midfielder Robin Fellhauer set a Bundesliga record by scoring the fastest goal in the competition's history - eight seconds after the start of the match against Bayern. This was reported by Sport Mail.ru.

The goal was preceded by an error by Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer. The goalkeeper unsuccessfully handled his teammate's return pass, let the ball go far away from him and, while trying to clear it, hit the opponent. Fellhauer took advantage of the mistake and sent the ball into the empty net.

The previous record for the fastest goal in the Bundesliga was nine seconds. It was shared by two players: Karim Bellarabi, who scored for Bayer in 2014, and Kevin Volland, who scored for Hoffenheim in 2015.

The Bundesliga has existed for 63 years.
