Sadio Mane benched as replacement Bayern wonderkid, 17, breaks Bundesliga record

Sadio Mane failed to make Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann's starting line-up for the home game against Stuttgart - but that was soon overshadowed by the exploits of Mathys Tel.

The 17-year-old sensation made history as his 36th minute strike ensured he became Bayern's youngest ever goalscorer in the Bundesliga. After an impressive run down the left-flank from teammate Alphonso Davies, who then played an inviting pass into the area, Tel guided the ball into the back of the net with a composed left-footed strike.

Remarkably, that goal marked the second record Tel broke on Saturday afternoon. The first came when he was named in the starting XI, in turn becoming the youngest player in Bayern's Bundesliga history to start a game, at just 17 years and 136 days old.
