5 Ousmane Dembélé's penalty on the stroke of half-time made this the first-ever semi-final with five goals in the first half.

7 Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's double means he has now scored more goals than any other player in the knockout phase of this season's competition.

9 Bayern's second-half comeback ensured this became the first-ever semi-final match to feature a total of nine goals; the previous record was seven, which has occurred on four previous occasions, including Inter's 4-3 defeat of Barcelona in the second leg of their semi-final last season.

9 Only one other game this season had featured nine goals, Barcelona's 7-2 victory against Newcastle in the second leg of their round of 16 tie.

13 Only four more goals are required in the second leg to match the record for the most across a Champions League knockout tie.

45 Barcelona hold the record for most goals in a single Champions League campaign in 1999/2000, but both Paris (43) and Bayern (42) are now within touching distance of that record too.
