#1 Hit: Robert Lewandowski
The Polish striker has been on fire this season. Ahead of the game, Robert Lewandowski had scored in each of the 10 games in the Bundesliga so far. The Polish international had already scored 14 goals in the league and 21 goals in total before the start of the game, so Borussia Dortmund were wary of the threat he carried. And the away side’s worst nightmare came to life in the 17th minute.
Lewandowski expertly connected with Benjamin Pavard’s improvised cross from the right, heading the ball into the net and giving his team the lead. The former Dortmund man led the line well for Bayern, bringing his attacking compatriots into play and spreading the ball well. The away side had a lot of trouble addressing his movement and positioning, as Robert Lewandowski scored in 11 consecutive games in the Bundesliga. However, he was hardly finished.
In the 76th minute, the Polish striker started and finished off a move, scoring his second of the night and his 16th goal in this Bundesliga season to send Bayern 3-0 up. The striker appears to be at the peak of his powers at the moment and his goal scoring form has been one of the highlights of Bayern’s season.
