Paris Saint-Germain stunned Villarreal on their own turf, firing in four goals in just 17 minutes during the fourth round of the UEFA Champions League league phase to set an unprecedented record in the competition's history.

Portuguese star João Neves got the show under way in the ninth minute. Désiré Doué doubled the lead three minutes later.

Senny Mayulu struck again a minute after that, before Fabián Ruiz completed the rout in the 17th minute.

  • Just 16 minutes and two seconds!

    According to statistics from "MisterChip", Paris Saint-Germain have become the fastest team in the history of the UEFA Champions League to score four goals in a single match, needing just 16 minutes and two seconds.

    The French side shattered the previous record held by Real Madrid, who scored four goals inside 20 minutes against Dinamo Zagreb in November 2011. And Paris pulled off their feat away from home.

    Saint-Germain also became the first team to net three goals on the road within the opening 13 minutes of a Champions League match, bettering the previous mark set by Borussia Dortmund, who scored a hat-trick in 17 minutes against Legia Warsaw in 2016.

  • Best goalscoring start

    The records did not stop there. Paris Saint-Germain became the second French club to score four goals within the first 20 minutes of a Champions League match, after Stade Reims managed the same feat against Ards (Northern Ireland) on 8 October 1958, according to StatsduFoot.

    Four rounds in, the Parisians have racked up 18 goals this season. That is their best scoring start at this stage of the competition, beating the previous record of 17 goals in the group stage of 2017-2018.
