Goals from Raul Gonzalez, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 Calderon based outfit.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robinho-c31382 stole the ball from Pablo Ibanez.
The following season Ruud Van Nistelrooy was the hero for Los Merengues, when he surprised http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Franco-c14050 with the clock ticking 34 seconds.
Kaka beat Asenjo from a long range howler four minutes into the derby during the 2009/2010 season to get the proceedings underway.
On the other hand, Kun Aguero started brightly at Santiago Bernabéu for Atletico Madrid and gave the fans something to cheer about as they took the lead with on 58 seconds on the clock.
The phenomenon of scoring in the first five minutes did not start with Kun, Raul or Nistelrooy, however it was Alfredo di Stefano who started the trend 58 years ago on November 1, 1953.
The Argentine legend added his name in record books after one minute of regular play. The Blonde Arrow laid the foundation for a famous 3-4 victory at the home of their rivals.
Di Stefano’s record of scoring the fastest goal in history of Madrid derby was broken by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lima-c22267. The former Brazilian international hit the back of net with 14 seconds as Bernabéu crowd was brought to its feet.
The team that has taken the lead early has finished with adding points to their tally, howbeit there are a few exceptions. Three draws and only two comebacks broke this rule.
The comebacks have come in the favour of Real Madrid, the first coming in 1953/54 season and the second coming in 2007/09 when Raul and Sneijder equalized after that famous Kun goal.
There has also been one occasion when both teams managed to score inside the first five minutes. In the 1962/63, Ferenc Puskas opened for Real Madrid after two minutes of the start. Atletico equalized in the fourth minute to bring the match to level terms.
