Just 8.4 seconds: Augsburg's Fellhauer scores the fastest goal in the Bundesliga

Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer conceded the fastest goal in Bundesliga history. In his FC Bayern duel against FC Augsburg, the goalkeeper made a mistake with his first ball action and allowed FCA professional Robin Fellhauer to score after 8.4 seconds. The Bundesliga and the data service provider Opta each reported the record time.

The previous record of nine seconds each was shared by Leverkusen's Karim Bellarabi and Hoffenheim's Kevin Volland.

Bayern played the kick-off straight back to Neuer, who was run over by Fellhauer. The veteran goalkeeper tried to chip the ball over the Augsburg player, but it hit Fellhauer in the back. He was then able to run towards the empty goal alone and make it 1-0.
