The match held on 22 November 2016, was truly a historical fixture. The 8-4 scoreline was not only the highest ever in the league but also the first match where 8 different players got on the score-sheet. And of the 12 goals scored 7 were scored in the first 32 minutes of the game.

Matches like this one only happen once in a while and this record is here to stay, any team will find it quite difficult to beat a scoreline like this.
