Inside the 8th minute

Is this sentence natural ? It is about soccer.
If the goal is scored inside the 8th minute it goes down as a goal scored at the 9th minute.

Thank you

The eighth minute begins when seven minutes have passed. I don't think a goal that was scored 7 minutes 1 second after the match had started would be counted as being scored at the ninth minute.
