Since the Premier League\u2019s inception in 1992\/93, there have been plenty of lightning-fast starts, including three goals scored in under 10 seconds, one of which came in at a record 07.69 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without further ado, here\u2019s a look at the top 10 quickest goals in Premier League history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-10-kevin-nolan-blackburn-vs-bolton-13-48-seconds\"><strong>10. Kevin Nolan (Blackburn vs Bolton): 13.48 seconds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Kicking off the list is Kevin Nolan, who holds the record for the 10th fastest goal in Premier League history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lancashire derby between Blackburn and Bolton in 2003 was a seven-goal thriller, ultimately won 4-3 by the Trotters, with Nolan scoring both the first and last goals of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nolan opened the scoring after just 13.48 seconds, smashing the ball home after Kevin Davies did well to keep it in play. But Bolton\u2019s lead lasted barely two minutes before Vratislav Gresko equalised for Blackburn. Goals from Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole put the hosts 3-1 up, only for Youri Djorkaeff to pull one back before half-time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the second half, Stylianos Giannakopoulos levelled the match in the 73rd minute, before Nolan stepped up once again as he rifled in the winner from close range just five minutes later to cap a dramatic comeback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Relive the drama here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"GOLDEN GOALS | Blackburn 3-4 Bolton (2004)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eFvbCTj6LZs?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.squawka.com\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-9-chris-sutton-everton-vs-blackburn-12-94-seconds\"><strong>9. Chris Sutton (Everton vs Blackburn): 12.94 seconds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Premier League Golden Boot winner turned pundit Chris Sutton enjoyed a fruitful career in front of goal, which includes netting 15 times during the 1994\/95 season to help Blackburn Rovers win the title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fastest of those came on April Fool\u2019s Day at Goodison Park, where Sutton opened the scoring against Everton after a one-two with strike partner Alan Shearer. His goal, clocked at 12.94 seconds, set a new Premier League record at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-8-dwight-yorke-coventry-vs-aston-villa-12-16-seconds\"><strong>8. Dwight Yorke (Coventry vs Aston Villa): 12.16 seconds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dwight Yorke takes eighth place with a lightning-fast header during Aston Villa\u2019s 3-0 win over Midlands rivals Coventry in the early stages of the 1994\/95 season, a result that lifted Villa to second in the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yorke opened the scoring just 12.16 seconds in, netting his fifth goal of the season, before a late double from Savo Milosevic wrapped up the victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it ranks eighth overall, 30 years later and Yorke\u2019s goal still stands as the fastest headed goal in Premier League history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-mark-viduka-charlton-vs-leeds-11-90-seconds\"><strong>7. Mark Viduka (Charlton vs Leeds): 11.90 seconds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark Viduka takes the seventh spot for his rapid opener against Charlton in March 2001.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal came just 11.90 seconds in, as Alan Smith flicked on a long ball from Ian Harte into Viduka\u2019s path. The Australian striker took a clever touch before slotting a composed finish past Sasa Ilic to give Leeds an instant lead at The Valley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-christian-eriksen-tottenham-vs-man-united-10-54-seconds\"><strong>6. Christian Eriksen (Tottenham vs Man United): 10.54 seconds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Christian Eriksen has scored a range of delightful goals during his career, the quickest of which was against his future employers Man United in early 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fans had barely taken to their seats when Harry Kane nodded on a header to Dele Alli whose blocked shot landed in the path of Eriksen, who coolly curled home past David de Gea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-alan-shearer-newcastle-vs-manchester-city-10-52-seconds\"><strong>5. Alan Shearer (Newcastle vs Manchester City): 10.52 seconds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We now venture into the top-5 and it\u2019s only fitting that the Premier League\u2019s all-time leading goalscorer makes the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fastest of Alan Shearer\u2019s 260 goals came in the 2002\/03 season, when he gave Newcastle a 10.52-second lead at home to Manchester City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shearer charged down a poor first touch from stand-in goalkeeper Carlo Nash &#8211; in for the injured Peter Schmeichel &#8211; before calmly slotting the ball into the net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look away now Nash\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Alan Shearer scores after 10 seconds\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/oh6l1e-2Sn4?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.squawka.com\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-abdoulaye-doucoure-everton-vs-leicester-city-10-18-seconds\"><strong>4.

The Cherries doubled their lead just before the hour mark, only for the Gunners to mount a comeback to snatch the spoils in the 97th minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Billing scores second-fastest ever Premier League goal | Arsenal 3-2 AFC Bournemouth\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8cE4f2sEW4E?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.squawka.com\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-shane-long-watford-vs-southampton-07-69-seconds\">1. <strong>Shane Long (Watford vs Southampton): 07.69 seconds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Southampton have their fair share of unwanted Premier League records, while last season they narrowly avoided being relegated with the lowest points total of all time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the Saints do have a couple of prized Premier League records, which include scoring the quickest hat-trick and goal of all time. Sadio Mane holds the hat-trick accolade, while the fastest goal honour goes to Shane Long, who opened the scoring against Watford in a blink-and-you\u2019ll-miss-it 07.69 seconds back during the 2018\/19 season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal came from Watford\u2019s kick-off with the ball played back to the centre back Craig Cathcart who tried to boot it forward, only for Long to react quickly and block it. The Irishman then raced on to the ball through on goal before chipping it past Ben Foster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"7.69 SECONDS!
