The players who scored the most goals in a League match

Last update 10 March, 2022 by Alberto Llopis

Who were the players who scored the most goals in a league match? If scoring a hat-trick is exceptional, scoring seven or six goals in the same game is unusual. And although he seems to be talking about a party at school recess instead of a match in the professional league, this has happened. But only two footballers have managed to score 7 goals in an intra-match in the history of the Spanish League.

The players who scored the most goals in a League match

Footballers who scored 7 goals in one match:

child

The first to achieve this feat was Agustín Sauto Arana, better known as child, an Athletic Club player. The young man from Biscay reached this record by scoring seven goals in the League against FC. Barcelona the 8 February 1931, with just 23 years. An exciting and fearless match in San Mamés, in which the field seemed to be tilted towards the rival goal. The chronicles from that time assure that Barça had to play, from the eleventh minute, with ten players due to Martí's injury, who had to leave the green after colliding with a post (at a time when changes were not allowed). A numerical inferiority that allowed the lions, led by the legendary Frederick Pentland, make the biggest win in the history of the national league: 12-1.

Ladislao Kubala

A win that the FC. Barcelona could not forget. So much so that curiously they ended up recreating it through Kubala, the second player to achieve this indecent number of goals. László Kubala Stecz, also called Ladislav Kubala or Ladislao Kubala, was touched with the magic wand 10 February 1952 in a match against Real Sporting de Gijón.

that day, the Hungarian scored seven (two from the penalty spot) of the nine Barça goals of the match. A spectacular result, added to the fact that they finished with their undefeated goal. One more demonstration of why Kubala ended up becoming one of the best players in history and a legend of the F. C. Barcelona.

Footballers who scored 6 goals in one match:

Cesar Rodriguez

The culé legend and one of the best footballers in the history of Barça, frame 6 goals against Castellón in the season 1941-42. But he did not do it as a culé player but as a Granada footballer.

World

One of Valencia's legends scored 6 goals in the match his team played beat him 8-3 to Real Betis in the season 1942-43.

Atom

Telmo Zarra, one of the best players in league history in the twentieth century, joined this list by marking it 6 goals against Lleida already in the 1970s 50. That game ended 10-0 for Bilbao residents.
