BERLIN, Nov. 22 -- Borussia Dortmund staged a goal festival to beat Legia Warsaw 8-4 following a one-sided affair in Group F of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.
Dortmund and Legia have set a new record with 12 goals in a single Champions League encounter. The hosts turned the tides within 74 seconds, and Marco Reus provided a hat-trick after returning from a lengthy injury break.
Thomas Tuchel's men controlled the proceedings from the kick-off and pressed the visitors from Warsaw into defence. Yet, Legia were able to break the deadlock against the run of the game as Aleksandar Prijovic slotted home Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe's square pass in the 12th minute.
Dortmund responded in style and needed only five minutes to recover from the setback as Shinji Kagawa restored parity in the 17th minute before he turned the tide moments later to make it 2-1 on the scoreboards.
The hosts continued to press, and extended their lead as Legia goalkeeper Radoslaw Cierzniak punched a free-kick into the chest of Nuri Sahin, who deflected the ball into the net to establish a two-goal lead with 20 minutes into the game.
However, the visitors remained dangerous on counters and reduced the arrears after Bartosz Bereszynski's low-cross found Prijovic, who marked his second goal of the night in the 25th minute.
The "BVB" remained unimpressed by the visitors effort, and responded with another two goals when Ousmane Dembele tapped in from 11 meters before Reus poked home from very close range for the 5-2 lead in the 32nd minute.
