SAN FRANCISCO, October 04, (THEWILL) – The name Robert Lewandowski must be synonymous with goals, THEWILL concedes. How else can one describe the goal-machine of the Bundesliga?
Continuing from where he stopped last season that merited him the Best Striker gong at the recently concluded UEFA awards, the striker has been nothing short of ferocious.
Lewandowski showed that killer striker instinct that has become the characteristic feature of his game again today when his side needed it the most. In the Bundesliga tie against Hertha Berlin at home, the Polish striker netted an astonishing four goals as Bayern Munich overcame a resilient Hertha Berlin side at the Allianz Arena.
THEWILL notes how cruel it must have seemed to the visitors. They came from behind three times to thwart their hosts but for the goal-scoring prowess of Lewandowski. It was harsh that after goals from Jhon Cordoba, Matheus Cunha and
Jessic Ngankam and the heroic efforts the entire team put in, they left the game empty-handed. After coming back level the third time, it must have seemed like fortune was on their side for a point but the Pole Lewandowski was there to drive home a penalty in stoppage time and rescue the win for Bayern.
After the international break, Bayern return to action against Duren in the DFB POKAL Domestic Cup competition while Hertha Berlin will face VfB Stuttgart at home in the Bundesliga.
