Fastest goal in the west

Joseba Llorente struck the fastest goal in Primera Liga history on Sunday in Real Valladolid's 2 -1 victory over Espanyol .

At 7.42 seconds it is faster than the fastest goal in a World Cup match which was scored by Turkey's Hakan Sükür after 11 seconds against South Korea in 2002.
Faster also than the fastest ever Premiership goal, timed at 10 seconds by Ledley King of Tottenham against Bradford in the 2000/01 season.So it looks like we have a new world record on our hands folks.

I found an even faster fastest goal.It was scored by Ricardo Olivera.Time - 2.8 seconds. He scored for Rio Negro against Soriano on 26 December 1998.
