The highest-scoring Champions League games of all time

Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich more than lived up to the hype this week after an astonishing Champions League semi-final first leg.

PSG hold the advantage after a thrilling 5-4 win at the Parc des Princes, in what was the highest-scoring single-leg semi-final in the competition’s history.

In fact, there have been only four Champions League games that have seen more goals scored than the end-to-end epic in Paris.

The highest-scoring game in Champions League history was between Borussia Dortmund and Legia Warszawa, after the German side won 8-4 at the Westfalenstadion in 2016. Shinji Kagawa and Marco Reus both scored twice for Dortmund in a 12-goal bonanza.

There have been two games involving 11 goals, including AS Monaco’s famous 8-3 win against Deportivo La Coruna in 2003. Bayern Munich’s 9-2 win over GNK Dinamo also saw 11 goals scored.

Bayern were also involved in the only other game to feature 10+ goals, when the German giants battered Barcelona 8-2 in the 2019/20 quarter-finals.

Remarkably, PSG’s win over Bayern Munich is the third nine-goal game of the 2025/26 season. The Parisians won 7-2 at Bayer Leverkusen in the league phase, while Barcelona beat Newcastle United by the same scoreline in the last 16.
