Ilkay Gundogan of Manchester City etched his name in FA Cup final history as he scored the quickest goal ever recorded in the prestigious tournament.
The extraordinary feat occurred a mere 12 seconds into the highly anticipated clash against Manchester United at Wembley on Saturday.
Leading as City’s captain, Gundogan unleashed an unstoppable volley past David de Gea, leaving the goalkeeper with no chance to save, thanks to an exquisite flick-on by Erling Haaland from a goal kick.
This incredible achievement surpassed the previous record set by Louis Saha, who found the net after 25 seconds for Everton in the 2009 Cup final against Chelsea.
Gundogan’s lightning-fast strike left fans in awe and instantly set the tone for an exhilarating encounter between the two Manchester rivals.
