Rafael Leao managed to score the fastest goal in Serie A history as he finished off a dribbled move, followed by a neat pass to find him via Hakan Calhanoglu. The goal happened six seconds into the match and is officially the fastest to be scored in the history of the League.
The Portuguese forward recently returned from injury and has been slowly reintroduced into the Milan squad. Despite the Non-availability of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is also the top scorer in Serie A, as and well as Ante Rebic, the Portuguese took on the goalscoring responsibility well.
Leao is naturally a centre-forward but has been deployed repeatedly in a more wide role by manager Stefano Pioli. However, the 21-year-old has adapted to both positions brilliantly and has the potential to be one of AC Milan’s best players in the years to come.
Milan dispatched Sassuolo 2-1 at home to extend their unbeaten record at the top of the Serie A table, whilst also remain the only other unbeaten side in Europe so far this season, a record they share with Juventus.
