Christian Eriksen scored a brilliant goal in the 11th second of the match, that too against Man United in January 2018. Jose Mourinho-helmed United visited Wembley for their Premier League match against Tottenham Hotspur.

The Manchester United defence failed to capitalise a long ball as Dele Alli's deflected shot found Eriksen's feet. The Danish star's left-footed shot gave an early lead to the home side as Phil Jones' own goal in the 28th minute sealed a 2-0 victory for Spurs.


#3 Alan Shearer: Newcastle vs Manchester City - 10.52 seconds
