Lewandowski Shines With Brace Against Borussia Dortmund In Klassiker

1 min read
Ballon d’Or Best Striker winner Robert Lewandowski scored a brace as Bayern Munich opened up a four-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga with a  nervy 3-2 win at second-placed Borussia Dortmund on Saturday evening.
The duo of Julian Brandt and Erling Haaland scored Dortmund’s goals at Signal Iduna Park, but former Dortmund hero Lewandowski netted and converted the winning penalty, either side of a Kingsley Coman goal.
Dortmund coach Marco Rose was shown a red card for his remonstration as the referee awarded a penalty to the German champions after a Mats Hummels handball led to Lewandowski converting the key spot-kick 12 minutes from time.
This was Bayern’s seventh straight win over Dortmund, including five Bundesliga victories and two German Super Cup triumphs.
Dortmund were unhappy to not be awarded a penalty after Marco Reus appeared to be fouled just before Lewandowski’s crucial spot kick.
