The first blow in Sunday's showdown between Chelsea and Manchester United took just 30 seconds. Sloppy play at the back saw Pedro score for Chelsea after just 30 seconds, bagging the fastest goal in the Premier League this season. It was a failure to clear the ball by United's backline that saw Pedro spring free and finish. Take a look.
And that's the fastest goal of the season so far. Pedro makes the most of poor defending from the visitors #CHEMUN#EPL#football#RedTvpic.twitter.com/rPqxN8HWFw
