On Tuesday, April 15, the second leg of the UEFA Champions League match between Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona takes place. During the match, the Catalans updated a rather unusual statistic.
Details: Dortmund scored two goals, but Barcelona responded with a goal. In the 54th minute, Fermin Lopez delivered a cross that was headed into the net by Bansabaini — into his own goal. According to Opta, no team from the top-5 European leagues has scored more own goals than Barcelona.
The Blaugrana already have five such goals — the same as Italian side Como.
