Which UEFA Champions League knockout tie has produced the most goals? Sixteen ties have reached the heights of 11 goals or more, but among them two stand tallest.
In 2018, Liverpool and Roma conjured up 13 between them in a semi-final thriller edged by the Reds. That total matched the record for a two-legged Champions League tie set nine years previously by Bayern and Sporting CP – although that was a considerably more one-sided contest.
