Robert Lewandowski Is In the Same Category As Ronaldo And Messi -So Dey Say!

Lewandowsi who? Robert Lewandowski has underlined his status as a world class striker with a Champions League record four goals in 15 minutes, leaving even his rivals comparing him to Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

The Bayern Munich star needed 14 minutes, 31 seconds to score his quartet in Tuesday’s 6-0 rout of Red Star Belgrade, making him the Champions League’s top scorer with 10 goals in five games.

“I must admit, I’m addicted to goals,” Lewandowski, 31, wrote on Twitter, having now netted 27 goals in 20 games for Bayern this season.

Bayern have won all four games under interim coach Hansi Flick, conceding zero goals in the process and scoring 16 – seven of which were by L#lewandowski.

“Robert is currently in top form,” said Flick. “He works incredibly professionally, always puts in extra work and has been rewarded for it again.”

His wife Anna, a former karate champion and fitness blogger, describes Lewandowski as a “machine” who puts in the hours at the gym to stay in top shape.

Lewandowski has 63 goals in 85 Champions League games, making him fifth in the list of all-time scorers behind Ronaldo (127), Messi (113), Raul Gonzalez (71) and Karim Benzema (64).

The Poland striker is the top-scoring foreigner in Bundesliga history with 281 goals in 302 games for Bayern and former club Dortmund.

His Belgrade haul was reminiscent of the five he scored in nine minutes in a 5-1 rout of Wolfsburg at the Allianz Arena in September 2015.

He is no stranger to scoring four goals in the Champions League, having achieved the same stunning feat in Dortmund’s 4-1 hammering of Real Madrid in the 2013 semifinals.

Lewandowski is deadly in the area for club and country.

The Poland captain has 61 goals in 108 internationals, sailing past the all-time record of 48 scored by Wlodzimierz Lubanski in the 1960s and 70s.

Adam Nawalka, Poland coach from 2013 until 2018, said he would not swap Lewandowski for either Ronaldo or Messi.

Bayern’s 4-0 trashing of Fortuna Dusseldorf away last Saturday was remarkable only because it was their first league game this season in which Lewandowski failed to score.

By netting in the first 11 league games, he smashed the record of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who scored for Dortmund in the first eight games of 2015/16.
