Bundesliga
Matchday 32 of the 2021/22 campaign is also the 2,000th of the Bundesliga era. bundesliga.com cherry-picks the standout statistical tidbits from the first 1,999...
5 - Five own goals on a single match day has occurred just twice since the Bundesliga's inception. On Matchday 10 of the Bundesliga inaugural campaign in 1963/64, Dieter Pulter (twice), Rudi Entenmann, Hans-Günter Schimmöller and Ferdinand Wenauerall all put through their own net. Timo Baumgartl, Alejandro Galvez, Leon Goretzka, Mats Hummels and Eugen Polanski followed suit on Matchday 13 of 2015/16.
7 - There have been home wins across the board on a total of seven of the 1,999 matchdays to date, but not since Matchday 19 of 1989/90.
7 - Two wins per match day is the historical minimum to date, while the highest number of draws is seven. Six match days have witnessed seven stalemates - Matchday 21 of 2020/21 being the most recent example.
8 - There has never been a match day made up exclusively of away wins. Matchday 6 of 2019/20 is the closest yet, with eight. The other fixture ended in a draw. It's the only match day on record where not a single one of the nine home teams managed a win.
11 - An eleven-goal match day is pretty rare. The two instances so far fell on Matchday 26 of 1989/90, when there were four goalless draws, and on Matchday 20 of 1998/99 (five goalless draws).
12 - Twelve is the record for penalties awarded on a single match day. Ten of the dozen in question on Matchday 12 of 1971/72 were successfully converted - another best-mark. There was at least one spot-kick in seven of the nine fixtures, but that's not a record. On Matchday 7 of 2020/21, referees blew for 10 penalties across eight of the nine games.
13 - Unlucky for some, but not Paco Alcacer, Breel Embolo, Patrick Herrmann, Dong-Won Ji, Dodi Lukebakio, Yunus Malli, Alexandru Maxim, Admir Mehmedi, Virgil Misidjan, Reiss Nelson, James Rodriguez, Anthony Ujah and Luca Waldschmidt. On Matchday 3 of 2018/19, all 13 of the aforementioned players scored a goal from the bench. It remains the record for number of match-day goals by substitutes.
53 - The record number of goals across a single match day. That made for an average of six per game back on Matchday 32 of 1983/84.
