Dortmund’s 0-4 loss against Barcelona wasn’t their greatest loss in football. Dortmund’s worst defeat in football was a 12–0 loss against Borussia Mönchengladbach on 29 April 1978, and 0-4 against Barcelona FC on Apr 9, 2025. Also, records have shown that Barcelona even had their worst defeat against Bayern Munich on 5 Aug 14, 2020 with 2-8, in the UEFA Champions League and a 12-1 loss on Feb 8, 1931, against Athletic in LaLiga.
PSG beat Aston Villa 3-1 in the first leg from football perceptive doesn’t stop them qualifying, because PSG suffered 1-6 against FC Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League on Mar 8, 2017 and 0-6 lost to Nantes in League 1 on 1st September 1971, although Aston Villa lost 0-8 against Chelsea, in Stamford Bridge on 23 Dec 2012 be their first greatest lost in football, but there is hope for villa.
Inter Milan’s 2-1 win over Bayern didn’t show their automatic qualifiers because, in 1971, Bayern defeated Dortmund 11–1; and Bayer Munich’s greatest loss in the European Cup happened against Dynamo Kyiv lost 0-2 on 4th Mar 16, 1977,and it only views people remember Inter Milan 3-0 lost against Barcelona in UEFA Champions League on 4 Feb 18, 2003 also Inter Milan biggest lost in football 1–9 against Juventus on 10 June 1961.
Arsenal beating 15-time Champions League champions, 3-0, won’t surprise me and that could prove Real Madrid can not qualify. Let us remember August 2011, when Arsenal suffered their heaviest league defeat in 84 years, as they lost 8–2 to Manchester United at Old Trafford and Arsenal’s UEFA Champions League 1-5 loss against Bayern in 2016-17 (2nd leg). Although Real Madrid lost 0-4 against Liverpool in 2008/9 and Manchester City in 2022/23, UEFA Champions League heaven didn’t fall, but let’s cast our minds back to Real Madrid’s 11–1 loss against Barcelona in the Copa Del Rey on 19 June 1943.
All these are just options, but as for you, what do you think?
