Robin Fellhauer's sub‑nine‑second strike against Bayern prompts a look at the league's fastest goals.
Robin Fellhauer ripped home against Bayern in just under nine seconds on October 10, 2026, shattering the Bundesliga’s speed record. Can any newcomer beat that lightning pace?
The match opened in Augsburg, where Bayern’s Harry Kane fed the ball straight to veteran keeper Manuel Neuer.
Kane’s attempt to bypass the surging Fellhauer backfired; the midfielder stripped the pass and sprinted to tap the empty net before the clock hit nine seconds.

Robin Fellhauer nets the quickest Bundesliga goal ever

His strike eclipsed the former benchmark shared by Karim Bellarabi and Kevin Volland, each of whom netted within nine seconds on the opening matchday of 2014/15 and the second matchday of 2015/16 respectively.
Toppling Bayern and legend Neuer is no small feat, yet Volland showed no patience when Hoffenheim hosted the record‑holders early in 2015/16. His goal proved futile as Die Kraichgauer fell 2‑1.

Volland’s finish arrived exactly one year and one day after Bellarabi first broke the mark, scoring for Leverkusen at Borussia Dortmund. For my money, Bellarabi’s record‑breaking night still feels the most thrilling. Unlike Hoffenheim, Die Werkself secured all three points with a 2‑0 win, making the Berlin native’s day unforgettable.
Before Bellarabi’s August 23, 2014 effort, the record stood at 11 seconds, jointly held by veterans Ulf Kirsten, Giovane Élber and Paul Freier.
