Thiago and Nicklas Bendtner set two different records for touches during a match

Thiago set a record for touches in a Bundesliga match with a whopping 185 in Bayern's 5-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt, blowing away the previous record of 151 held by teammate Bastian Schweinteiger. He also set a record for passes with 159. Again, all in one match.

Meanwhile, Nicklas Bendtner only made a brief appearance at the end of Arsenal's 2-0 win over Crystal Palace, but he still managed to set what had to be a record for a different kind of touches during a match before he even left the bench.

It's not clear exactly what kind of touches Bendtner is doing there, but, well, let's just leave it at that.
