This is how Como made history in the UEFA Champions League after a spectacular 9-1 away win over Lens, recording the biggest away-win margin in the history of this competition.
An extraordinary result that breaks the previous record of a seven-goal difference. Such a margin had been recorded four times by Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, but no team had previously won away by eight goals.
Furthermore, the eight-goal margin also equals the historic record for the biggest wins in the Champions League, achieved so far in matches played at the home ground of the winning teams.
Liverpool had defeated Beşiktaş 8-0 on 6 November 2007, while Real Madrid had triumphed with the same score against Malmö on 8 December 2015.
Como’s spectacular performance does not end with the historic record. On the individual front, Anastasios Douvikas is shining in this Champions League edition, where he currently leads the scorers’ chart alone with six goals.
The striker ranks ahead of well-known names such as Erling Haaland and Tresoldi, becoming one of the main protagonists of this edition of Europe’s most prestigious club competition.
