VIDEO - The 2020-21 Champions League is in full swing, and Le Figaro takes you back to the most beautiful goals of the prestigious cup with big ears. Today, the fastest goal in the history of the competition with Roy Makaay against Real Madrid in 2007.


It's a record that will be hard to beat.

Absent from the Champions League semi-finals since 2001, Bayern Munich left for a new heavy disillusionment in 2007, from the knockout stages against Real Madrid.

Worn by Raul and Ruud van Nistelrooy on the first leg, the Spanish club had the best (3-2) over Oliver Kahn, Willy Sagnol or Bastian Schweinsteiger.

Despite two away goals, Bayern did not start as clear favorites as they can be today.

But already, at the time, he started with his feet to the ground.

Even through the floor.

Roy Makaay's goal after 10 seconds against Real Madrid in 2007 (2-1)

Almost on kick-off, Roberto Carlos missed a control in front of Hasan Salihamidzic.

The Bosnian immediately crossed for Roy Makaay.

We have only been playing for 10 seconds and the Allianz Arena rises like one man.

Makaay, a Dutch striker with more than 100 goals in the Bavarian tunic, becomes the fastest goalscorer in the history of the Champions League.

Served by Sagnol, the Brazilian defender Lucio signed the break on the hour mark. A penalty from Ruud van Nistelrooy at the end of the match will not change anything (2-1).

Bayern eliminates Real and meets AC Milan in the quarter-finals.

But he will not break this glass ceiling, with a new misstep just before the last four against the future winner of the Champions League (2-2, 0-2).

Dark times for the prestigious German club, absent from the following edition and which will not find the semi-finals until 2010, beaten in the final by Inter Milan (0-2).
