Benteke Breaks Record By Scoring The Fastest Goal in World Cup History

The Belgium striker made history as he found the

back of the net after just seven seconds during his

side's clash against Gibraltar on Monday evening

Christian Benteke made history by scoring the fastest goal in

World Cup qualifying after just seven seconds against

Belgium did not even kick-off in the Group H clash in Faro,

with Gibraltar losing possession immediately after the opening

whistle.

Ryan Casciaro was caught sleeping on the ball and Benteke

stole in to snatch the ball away from him before running clear

to smash in a powerful finish.

Crystal Palace striker Benteke's goal was also his first for

Belgium since March 2015 - when he scored against Cyprus -

and the fastest strike in the national side's history.
