+<br>Alhassan Yusuf made history for New England Revolution by scoring the club’s fastest goal of the 2025 campaign just 44 seconds into the match.
+<br>
+<br>The Nigerian midfielder intercepted a [loose pass](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/football-governance/super-eagles-promised-record-bonus-for-2026-world-cup-qualification/) from an opponent, broke forward and chipped the goalkeeper to put the Revolution ahead almost immediately. The goal [occurred](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/news/interviews/sunday-oliseh-names-festus-onigbinde-worst-coach-in-super-eagles-history/) during the regular-season finale at Gillette Stadium, where the Revolution were playing against Chicago Fire FC.
+<br>
+<br>Yusuf’s strike not only gave his team an early advantage, but it also etched his name in the club’s record books. The goal was highlighted as the quickest by a Revolution player in that season and underscored his growing influence all the way from [Nigeria](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/local-clubs-and-academies/mubaraq-last-minute-goal-seals-gateway-win-over-first-bank/) to the United States.

+<br>When the whistle blows and the timer is barely running, every second pulses with possibility. Alhassan Yusuf’s goal at 44 seconds was not just swift it was a statement. For the New England Revolution, it spoke of intent. For Yusuf, it spoke of arrival.
+<br>
+<br>In football the loudest messages are sometimes delivered in the quietest moments: intercept, sprint, finish. Yusuf executed all three in a sequence so brief it nearly skipped the announcer’s breath. Yet the deeper impress lies not in the time, but in the  to read, to react, to strike. For a Nigerian midfielder abroad, in a league where [adaptation](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/news/national-team-news/flying-eagles-name-35-man-squad-for-2025-u20-afcon/) is not optional, this moment reflects more than one goal. It reflects readiness.
+<br>
+<br>That said, a single burst cannot define a season. The challenge now is durability. Can Yusuf replicate that impact when the match opens at 75 minutes? Can he bring that wake-up call not just once, but repeatedly? The opposition will now watch him differently. The margin for error narrows.

+<br>But for now, this 44[-second slice](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/football-history/mikel-leads-nigerian-earnings-ranks-6th-in-africa-richest-footballers/) of action provides a reference point. It says: "I’m here. I’m capable. I matter." For Nigerian football, it signals that the export line is bearing fruit not just in numbers, but in moments. Let this goal be celebrated now and then built on.

+<br>Did You Know?
+<br>
+<br>
+	 Yusuf’s goal came 44 seconds into the match the quickest goal recorded by the New England Revolution in the 2025 season.
+
+	 He scored while playing against [Chicago](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/international-nigerian-footballers/river-plates-young-striker-eyes-flying-eagles-call-up-after-swift-rise/) Fire FC at Gillette Stadium, during the regular-season finale for both teams.
+
+	 That goal marked one of only two goals he scored in that match, yet it carried outsized significance for team and player alike.
+
+	 Prior to joining the Revolution, Yusuf developed in Belgium with Royal Antwerp his path highlighting the diverse routes Nigerian players now take to arrive in the MLS.
+
+	 Scoring so early offers a psychological edge it forces the opposition immediately onto the front foot, sets the tone for the match and can shape the opponent’s tactics from minute one.
