Ismail Sabari Scores in Bayern Munich Draw
Moroccan international Ismail Sabari scored a goal in Bayern Munich's 2-2 draw against Augsburg today, Saturday, in the fifth round of the Bundesliga. The match featured the fastest goal in the league's history, resulting from a mistake by goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
Rubin Velhaur opened the scoring for Augsburg just 8.4 seconds into the match, taking advantage of Neuer's error after the kick-off executed by Luis Diaz, making him the scorer of the fastest goal in the 63-year history of the Bundesliga.
Neuer, who is 40 years old, raised his hands in apology to his teammates after the mistake, while the Bavarian team found itself trailing from the early minutes of the match.
Bayern Munich, led by Belgian coach Vincent Kompany, attempted to quickly return to the match, relying on the movements of Harry Kane, Michael Oliseh, Luis Diaz, and Ismail Sabari, but Augsburg's defense thwarted repeated attacking attempts.
The home side nearly doubled their lead in the 35th minute when Joma Bah missed a clear opportunity after a corner kick, ending the first half with Augsburg leading 1-0.
As the second half began, the pressure from the Bavarians continued, and Luis Diaz managed to find the net after capitalizing on a mistake by goalkeeper Finn Dahmen, but the referee disallowed the goal after a video review for offside.
Sabari succeeded in equalizing for Bayern Munich in the 55th minute after a pass from Harry Kane, but Augsburg regained their lead in the 64th minute through Rodrigo Ribeiro, who followed up on a ball cleared by Neuer after a shot from Calvin Brackelman.
Substitute Nathaniel Brown brought the match back to square one in the 80th minute, scoring the equalizer with another assist from Harry Kane, before the post denied Serge Gnabry a winning goal in the 83rd minute.
Bayern Munich was without Jamal Musiala due to injury, and Konrad Laimer, who missed the trip after the birth of his child, while Sabari took on the role behind Harry Kane, and Josip Stanišić occupied the right-back position.
With this result, Bayern Munich raised their tally to 11 points in second place, two points behind leaders Borussia Dortmund, while Augsburg increased their points to 8 in fifth place, as the Bavarians failed to capitalize on Dortmund's draw to seize the top spot.
Bayern Munich also could not avenge their only league defeat last season against Augsburg.
The Bavarian team is preparing to face Norwegian side Viking Stavanger next Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League, before playing seven more matches until early November.
