Jamal Musiala scored the third fastest goal for FC Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga after 14 seconds. In the end, the record champions won clearly 6-1 (4-0) against Holstein Kiel, which was beaten after just a few minutes in the Saturday evening match.
According to data provider Opta, it was the third fastest goal in Munich’s Bundesliga history after Giovane Élber (1998/11 seconds) and Lothar Matthäus (1986/13 seconds). Musiala is a little further away from the league record. Former professional Karim Bellarabi and Kevin Volland from Union Berlin share the best time of nine seconds. Bellarabi scored his early goal in 2014 with Bayer 04 Leverkusen against Borussia Dortmund. Volland, then still wearing the TSG Hoffenheim jersey, scored after nine seconds against Bayern in 2015.
After Musiala’s early goal, star striker Harry Kane scored three goals (7th minute/43rd/90th+1, penalty), Kiel defender Nicolai Remberg scored an own goal (13th) and substitute Michael Olise (65th) were the other goalscorers for Bayern. Armin Gigovic scored the consolation goal for Holstein (82nd). FCB is now first after three matchdays, two points ahead of Dortmund and Leipzig.
“We got off to a great start and were there from the start. We showed everything we had planned on the pitch. There are a lot of positives. We have the winning mentality back. We are not resting now. The next tasks follow. We have to score points, and ideally three,” said Bayern captain Manuel Neuer on the TV channel “Sky”.
“I would like to say: It’s always nice to come here, but last time it wasn’t so nice. Today it was a bit better, fortunately,” said Kimmich, referring to the cup embarrassment three years ago. This time, however, Kiel had no chance, as Lewis Holtby also admitted: “You don’t like to lose 6-1. That was a class difference. That’s not our benchmark. FC Bayern is a top team.”
