Lewandowski's lethal legwork

Robert Lewandowski was the first to admit he had little idea how fast his goals flew in after scoring five times in nine minutes to write Bundesliga history in Bayern Munich's 5-1 rout of Wolfsburg on Tuesday.

The 27-year-old striker scored all five goals within an official time of eight minutes, 59 seconds after coming off the bench at halftime with Bayern trailing 1-0 at Allianz Arena.

A superb strike by Wolfsburg's Daniel Caligiuri gave the visitors the lead until the 27-year-old Lewandowski sent Bundesliga records tumbling, including needing just 3 min, 19 sec to claim his hat-trick.
