Ilkay Gundogan has scored the quickest goal in FA Cup final history, giving Manchester City the lead against Manchester United inside 13 seconds on Saturday.
Gundogan sent a dipping volley from the edge of the area past United goalkeeper David De Gea at Wembley Stadium.
The previous fastest goal in a final was by Louis Saha for Everton in the 2009 final against Chelsea. That was 25 seconds.
It is the 142nd FA Cup final.
United would claw back into the match after Bruno Fernandes converted a penalty to take the score to 1-1 as the match reached half time.
