We've seen some insanely high-scoring games in women's football over the last few years. These games can be extremely entertaining for fans, but they bring the general quality of women's football into doubt. "You want competitive games, and these aren't," England manager Sarina Wiegman remarked of the high-scoring games. "Every country should improve the women's game, but I don't think the current scores are a good thing," she concluded. The high scoring matches highlight the gap between major and minor footballing nations. Surprisingly, all of the games with astounding score lines occurred in international football.
In this list, we shall relieve the five most highest scoring matches in women's football history.
5. Germany Women 17-0 Kazakhstan Women
We start our list with the Germany Women 17-0 scoreline against Kazakhstan Women Euro’s qualification match. The German national team is one of the most successful in the history of women's football. They have won two World Cups, eight European Championships, and were the Olympic winners in 2016.
Their highest margin of victory came in a European Championship qualification match against Kazakhstan in 2011, when they scored a stunning 17 goals.
Alexandra Popp, a well-known German striker, scored four of her 61 goals for Germany in this match.
4. Australia Women 18-0 Indonesia Women
The Australian women’s 18-0 thrashing comes in fourth on our list. In the 2022 AFC Women's Asian Cup, the Matildas defeated Indonesia with an astounding score of 18-0.
Australia came within three goals of matching the largest international victory margin in women's football history after 43 shots, 25 of which were on target and 18 of which found the back of the net.
Chelsea's star Sam Kerr scored five goals in the thrashing, making him Australia's all-time leading goalscorer, male or female, with 61.
