Hoffenheim's Kevin Volland scored against Bayern Munich after just nine seconds to equal the fastest ever Bundesliga goal on Saturday.

The German forward pounced on a misplaced back pass from Bayern centre-back Jerome Boateng to slot past Manuel Neuer at the Rhein-Neckar-Arena. 

It equals the record set by Bayer Leverkusen's Karim Bellarabi against Borussia Dortmund last August.

Bayern, who began their season with a 5-0 win over Hamburg last week, equalised through Thomas Muller shortly before half-time.

Hoffenheim, who opened their campaign with a 2-1 defeat at Leverkusen, have never beaten Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga in 14 attempts.

Thomas Muller equalised four minutes from the break, but Boateng's miserable day got even worse in the second half when he was sent off.

He was bailed out thought by his team-mates and in particular striker Robert Lewandowski. The Poland star tapped in after a superb run and cutback from Douglas Costa in the very last minute to win the game 2-1.
