On the night of October 1 and early morning of October 2 (Vietnam time), fans had an exciting night with a rain of goals in the second match of the UEFA Champions League 2024-2025.
In total, 32 goals were scored in 9 matches played in Germany, Italy, England, Spain, Netherlands, Austria, Slovakia.
The biggest and highest-scoring win of the night came in Dortmund, where the hosts thrashed Celtic 7-1. Germany striker Karim Adeyemi scored a first-half hat-trick at Signal Iduna Park.
There were 6 goals in the first half alone, with 5 belonging to Dortmund. Emre Can opened the scoring in the 7th minute from the penalty spot, the visitors from Scotland equalized 2 minutes later, but that was all they could do.
In addition to Adeyemi's three goals, Serhou Guirassy scored from the penalty spot in the first half, before completing his double in the second half. The remaining Dortmund goal belonged to Felix Nmecha.
While Celtic have yet to win in their last nine games against German teams, Dortmund have followed Bayern Munich (who won 9-2 against Dinamo Zagreb in matchday 1) to make it two points clear in the Champions League.
The second biggest margin of victory in this series was Barcelona's 5-0 win over Young Boys, with Robert Lewandowski scoring twice to give the Catalans their first Champions League win of the season.
The 3 points helped Hansi Flick's team temporarily forget the 2-4 defeat to Osasuna in La Liga last weekend, while the Swiss representative still could not have their first away win in the European Cup since the 1960s.
4-0 was the score in the matches between Inter Milan and Manchester City, but no player scored more than 1 goal.
Inter hosted Red Star Belgrade at the San Siro, and despite the scoreline, the Serbian side did not make it easy for them. Hakan Calhanoglu, Marko Arnautovic, Lautaro Martinez and Medhi Taremi gave Inter their first win of the season.
As for Man City, they played away at Slovan Bratislava in Slovakia, but they played like they were at home, with 74% possession and 25 shots.
