You shouldn't have arrived late this Sunday afternoon at Roazhon Park. We had only been playing for 34 seconds when Nolan Roux deceived the Rennes goalkeeper with a powerful shot from under the crossbar, scoring the fastest goal of the season in Ligue 1.

Showered from the start, Stade Rennais quickly returned to the game thanks to a goal from M'Baye Niang (7th). The Senegalese striker doubled the lead at the very end of the game (2-1), allowing the Bretons to find their place on the podium.

Arrival of Guingamp in the winter transfer window, the Nîmes striker Nolan Roux has made it his specialty to score at the start. While playing in the Lille jersey, the striker had already scored a goal after 21 seconds of play against Nancy on January 12, 2013. But the record for the fastest goal in the history of Ligue 1 is still owned by Michel Rio. The Caen player had taken only 8 seconds to score his team's first goal on February 15, 1992 against Cannes.
