Sheffield Wednesday 5-0 Bolton - 1997 (first half 5-0)
Sheffield Wednesday looked to be on the up in November 1997. A week after the 1-6 defeat to Manchester United, which ended David Pleat's stint. Under interim boss Peter Shreeves, Sheffield Wednesday went on to record the club's biggest top-flight win in three years.
Paulo Di Canio scored in the 20th minute to kick-start proceedings, with Guy Whittingham scoring just six minutes later. Andy Booth's hat-trick completed the scoring.
Burnley 1-6 Man City - 2010 (first half 1-6)
Heavy rain during the half-time break raised concerns that Burnley's match against Manchester City would have to be stopped. After all, at that time Burnley was almost certain to lose considering the score was 0-5.

In the second half, neither side was able to score and the match ended with a score of 1-6.
Stoke 6-1 Liverpool - 2015 (first half 5-0)

In the second half Gerrard scored, but former team-mate Peter Crouch made it 6-1 to Stoke. What a dark final day of the season for the Reds and Gerrard.

Bernardo Silva then scored City's fourth. When time showed 20 minutes, City were already five goals ahead without reply. City's fifth goal came from Nicolas Otamendi.
Pep Guardiola's side weren't done there. Three more goals came after halftime. Bernardo Silva's two goals in the second half completed his first hat-trick. City's goal party was capped off with Kevin De Bruyne's goal.

After the break, Leicester continued to press. As a result, four goals were scored and Leicester managed to record the biggest away win in the history of English top-flight competition.
Liverpool 9-0 Bournemouth - 2022 (first half 5-0)
After the match, then-Bournemouth manager Scott Parker openly stated that his team was inadequate at this level.
Four of Liverpool's first six shots in this match ended up in the net. Luis Diaz, Harvey Elliott, Trent Alexander Arnold, and Roberto Firmino took turns to find Bournemouth. Virgil van Dijk scored the fifth goal before the half-time break, but it didn't stop there.
Bournemouth goalkeeper Mark Travers worked hard but could not hold the ball. Roberto Firmino, Fabio Carvalho, and Luis Diaz added to the floodgates. The match ended with a score of 9-0.
Newcastle 6-1 Tottenham - 2023 (first half 5-0)
The number of mistakes allowed Newcastle, who were chasing Champions League tickets, to score five goals past Hugo Lloris within 21 minutes.
In the first 10 minutes, Newcastle have scored three goals. Jacob Murphy broke into Tottenham's goal in the second and ninth minutes, while Joelinton in the sixth minute. Alexander Isak scored two additional goals before the break.
Having scored through Harry Kane, Tottenham had to go home with a 1-0 defeat from Newcastle headquarters. No wonder many Tottenham supporters left St James' Park when there were still more than three-quarters of the game remaining.
