Autogolazo (Creeperian: Ափտոգոլազո; Creeperian for "The Own Goal Match"), also referred to as simply 169–0, was a football match of the Liga Nacional. It was contested between CF Adolfosburg and CF San Salvador which was held on 24 April 1910, the final matchday of the 1910 Liga Nacional.

During the match, San Salvador scored 169 own goals in protest of the Liga Nacional's method of qualifying teams for the Copa Creeperiano, which at the time only allowed the two best-ranked teams of the domestic league to compete in the single match tournament. As San Salvador had already been mathematically eliminated from competing in the 1910 Copa Creeperiano, and the matchup between Adolfosburg and Salvador had already been decided, San Salvador scored 169 own goals in their last match to protest the qualification system.

The final scoreline of 169–0 is the record for the largest defeat in association football history. In terms of legitimate matches, however, San Salvador 44–0 La'Libertad remains the record for the largest defeat, as San Salvador's 169 own goals made the match a thrown match. The 169 goals were scored in 90 minutes of normal play and 13 minutes of stoppage time, for an average of 1.64 goals, or rather, own goals, being scored per minute.

As a result of San Salvador's protest, the National Football Association (ANF) agreed to extend the Copa Creeperiano to the four best-ranked teams of the domestic league, and that the new tournament would include two-legged tie semifinals, a third place match, and a final match. Despite succeeding in their protest, San Salvador was banned by the National Football Association from participating in the 1911 and 1912 Copa Creeperianos, a punishment which the club and the associated agreed to after the association initially sought to relegate San Salvador to the Liga 2 as a punishment. The compromise to stay in the Liga Nacional while being banned from the next two Copa Creeperiano allowed San Salvador to remain one of the only four clubs to have never been relegated from Creeperopolis' top football league as of 2024, along with Adolfosburg, Salvador, and Nuevo Xichútepa.

With the thrown match, Adolfosburg became the second team in the history of the Liga Nacional (now Liga Imperial) to finish a season with no losses, after San Salvador accomplished the same feat in 1907, and became the only team to ever play a perfect season with no losses or draws, winning all 14 matches they played. Adolfosburg also attained the highest goal differential at +200 and the most goals scored at 210. Adolfosburg later went on to win the 1910 Copa Creeperiano against Salvador by a score of 4–0.
