Lewandowski Scores Fastest Hat-Trick In Bundesliga

Poland captain Robert Lewandowski showed that he is in top form ahead of next month’s crucial Euro 2016 qualifier at home to the Republic of Ireland by creating goalscoring history in the Bundesliga on Tuesday night. The Bayern Munich striker netted the Bundesliga’s fastest hat-trick on his way to a sensational five-goal haul after coming on as a substitute at the start of the second half in their match against VfL Wolfsburg on Tuesday. Lewandowski instantly turned the game around after the Bavarians trailed 1-0 at half-time, scoring three goals in four minutes from the 51st to the 55th before quickly adding two more, including a spectacular volley, to become the first Bundesliga player to score five times in nine minutes. “This is the fastest hat-trick and the fastest five-goal run,” the Bundesliga said on Twitter with Bayern leading 5-1 and the game continuing.
