Bayern Munich twice came from behind to draw 2-2 at Augsburg on Saturday after a mistake from Manuel Neuer led to the fastest goal in Bundesliga history.
Neuer handed Augsburg the lead after 8.4 seconds with an error that Robin Fellhauer capitalised on, before two assists from Harry Kane helped resuce a point in the second half.
Bayern missed the chance to knock Borussia Dortmund off top spot after the draw and remain two points behind the league leaders in second.
"It feels more like a defeat. On another day we would have won this game, but that’s football. We gave away two sloppy goals and they punished us for it," Kane told Dazn.
Augsburg could not believe their luck after 40-year-old Neuer's howler handed them the lead after just eight seconds.
🚨HISTORY MADE! Neuer's🇩🇪 unbelievable mistake made Fellhauer's goal fastest ever among 5 major leagues. In the 5th round of Bundesliga, Bayern Munich travel to challenge Augsburg. To most of the audience's surprise, a historic moment was created at the scene. 5 seconds after the game started, Augsburg forward Robin Fellhauer scores as Bayern Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer made a terrible mistake: his attempt of passing was blocked by the former. This goal is by far the fastest goal in all games played in the 5 major leagues. Previously, this record is held by the then Milan winger Leao. In the Serie A game against Sassuolo of the 2020-2021 season, the Portuguese scored 6.76 seconds after the referee started the match.

Having received the ball straight from kick-off, Neuer chipped it directly into the path of Fellhauer, who ran it into the empty net.
"We would have preferred a better start, but Manu has played football long enough. He can't change what happened, he just needs to do what he's always done in his career and keep on showing how good he is," Bayern coach Vincent Kompany told Dazn.
The Bundesliga later confirmed the goal had beaten the previous record of nine seconds held jointly by Kevin Volland and Karim Bellarabi.
"Those guys must have been really slow," Fellhauer told Sky with a laugh after the game.
"In all seriousness, it's an unbelievable feeling because a record like this means you're part of something really big."
Bayern remained shellshocked for much of the first half and were lucky not to go 2-0 down when Juma Bah missed a sitter on 36 minutes.
The visitors found the net shortly after the break when Augsburg 'keeper Finn Dahmen fumbled a brilliant volley from Luis Diaz, but the goal was ruled out for an offside in the build-up.
Ismael Saibari broke Augsburg's resistance a few minutes later as the Moroccan slotted the ball home after an elegant assist from Kane.
Yet the hosts struck back quickly, thanks in part to another off-colour moment from Neuer.
After Augsburg unlocked the defence with a long ball forward, Neuer parried Calvin Brackelmann's shot straight at Rodrigo Ribeiro, who smashed the ball under the bar to restore the lead.
Both Diaz and Serge Gnabry had goals ruled out for offside before Kane set up Nathaniel Brown for Bayern's second equaliser ten minutes from time.
