This is a list of the earliest time we scored multiple goals. It shows the fastest three times we scored 2, 3, 4, 5 goals etc.
Note: I'm missing a lot of goal times for early games. In fact of the 8,356 competitive goals in the database, I only have times for 3,731 of them, and that explains why the list stops at 8 even though we scored more goals. I need to get the goal times for those other earlier games...
Still, here's the list and you can see that last season's game at Old Trafford was the fastest we scored 2 goals, even though we ended up losing that one.
