You shouldn’t miss the kick-off of a match when you go to the stadium, and if some still doubted it, Wahbi Khazri did not ask to remind them, during the 2nd day of the League 1. The Tunisian, scorer from 19 seconds into the game after taking advantage of a big mistake from the Lens defense, scored the earliest of his 61 top-flight goals. He also entered 7th place in the top 10 fastest goals in the Championship, tied with the former Marseillais Loïc Rémy and the former Guingampais Jimmy Briand, respectively authors of the same performance in 2011 and 2015. Since the 2007 season -2008, nobody did better than Yoan Gouffran and his 12 seconds. It is necessary to go back to a match of SM Caen against AS Cannes in February 1992 to obtain the ultimate record of 8 seconds still belonging to Michel Rio (58 years old today).
