Champions League: Dominant away victories, Lyon makes the list

The Champions League (CL) has seen some of the biggest away victories in its history, with matches featuring a goal difference of six or more now officially listed.

According to Idman.biz, the International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) has compiled a list of these remarkable matches, highlighting games where teams won by a margin of six goals or more.

One standout result is Atletico Madrid's 6-0 victory over Sparta in the latest match, marking the 12th such instance. Of these, there have been three 7-goal victories and nine 6-goal victories. Notably, only two clubs—Liverpool and Bayern Munich—have achieved such dominant wins twice. Also, Shakhtar Donetsk is the only team to have appeared on this list both as a winner and a loser.

Ahead of their Europa League clash against Qarabag, Lyon made a memorable mark in the Champions League by defeating Dinamo Zagreb 7-1 in 2011.
