DID YOU KNOW THE PLAYER THAT SCORED THE FASTEST GOAL IN THE UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE?


 The fastest UEFA Champions League goal came from the Dutch striker Roy Makaay, who netted for Bayern Munich against Real Madrid in 2007 after 10.2 seconds. He took the record from Gilberto Silva, who scored after 20 seconds for Arsenal FC against PSV Eindhoven in 2002. Third on the list is Alessandro del Piero for Juventus against Manchester United in 1997 and in fourth came from Clarence Seedorf against Schalke 04 in 2005. Alexandre Pato's effort for AC Milan against the reigning champions FC Barcelona on September 13, 2011 came after 23 seconds. Remarkably that only put it fifth among the fastest goals in the competition.
