Video: Quickest goals

Sports Mole picks out some of the most memorable quickest goals from the world of football.

Yesterday afternoon, Aston Villa's summer signing Libor Kozak made an instant impression by scoring against Norwich City within 90 seconds of appearing from the bench.

However, there are a host of players that have made much quicker goalscoring interventions than the Czech Republic international.

Below, Sports Mole has picked out five of the most memorable strikes.

Roy Makaay - Bayern Munich vs. Real Madrid, 2007

Dutch striker Roy Makaay claimed the fastest goal in Champions League history during the knockout tie in Germany.

Nicklas Bendtner - Arsenal vs. Tottenham Hotspur, 2007

The Arsenal frontman had been on the pitch just six seconds when he converted Cesc Fabregas's corner.

Alan Shearer - Newcastle United vs. Manchester City, 2003

One to forget for Carlo Nash as his clearance is charged down by Shearer, who scores in just under 11 seconds.

Ledley King - Bradford City vs. Tottenham Hotspur, 2000

The quickest goal (10 seconds) in Premier League history as the Spurs legend scores the opener in Valley Parade.

Hakan Sukur - South Korea vs. Turkey, 2002

It took the Turkish centre-forward just 11 seconds to find the back of the net against co-hosts South Korea at the 2002 World Cup.

Fred - America/MG vs. Unknown

An audacious effort from this Brazilian youth clash is rewarded as the goalkeeper is beaten from the halfway line in under four seconds.
