Como Bury Lens 9-1 in Historic Champions League Rout

A Stunning Result In Lens

Como produced one of the most stunning results in Champions League history on Wednesday night, thrashing hosts Lens 9-1 at the Stadion Bollaert-Delelis in matchday four of the 2026/27 league phase.

Douvikas Leads The Demolition

Greek striker Anastasios Douvikas led the demolition with a hat-trick. He opened the scoring in the 7th minute and added a second in the 32nd. Paz made it 3-0 before the break, scoring in the 40th.

Como Continue To Gain Strength

Lens hoped to regroup at half-time, but Como only got stronger. Da Cunha made it 4-0 in the 47th, Kempf added a fifth in the 53rd, and Douvikas completed his treble in the 57th. Liberali made it 7-0 in the 62nd, and the Italians looked ready to score at will.

Aguilar Pulls One Back For Lens, But Como Wrap It Up

Aguilar pulled one back for Lens in the 65th, and the home crowd got a brief moment to cheer. It didn’t last. Baturina restored the seven-goal margin in the 68th, and substitute Papaccioli added the ninth deep into stoppage time (90+2) to complete the rout.

The Biggest Win Ever

Seven different players got on the scoresheet. For Lens, it was a nightmare on their own turf. For Como, it was a night that will be remembered for years, and several outlets are already calling it the biggest win the competition has ever seen.

An Unrelenting Como

Cesc Fabregas’ side was relentless and did not at any stage of the game, soften the pressure they had built on Lens right from the start. The precision in finishing, the movement on the pitch, and the organisation while moving forward or defending were sublime for Como. The Italians were super confident and went for the kill.

A Helpless Lens

Lens, who are not having a great season either in Ligue 1 or in the Champions League ( having lost 2 of the previous 3 games) despite being runners-up in 25/26, were clueless, low in confidence and once Como gained ruthless control of the match, Lens just disintegrated completely on the pitch.

The Bottom Line

Lens were fragile and lost their discipline when the first goals went in. Como were clinical, deep in attacking options, and never let up. A scoreline like this usually means one team decimated the other mentally.
