Robert Lewandowski ha dejado sentenciada la eliminatoria Bayern Múnich-Salzburgo con un 'hat trick' en apenas 11 minutos. Tras el 1-1 registrado en Austria en el partido de ida, el delantero polaco ha despejado las dudas con su instinto goleador.
Lewandowski solo necesitó 23 minutos desde el inicio del partido para marcar su triplete y estableció un récord en la historia de la Champions superando los 24 que empleó el italiano Marco Simone con el Milan contra el Rosenborg en 1996 (1-4).
En cambio, el 'hat trick' más meteórico lo logró el francés Bafétimbi Gomis en apenas 7 minutos, del 45 al 52, en el partido que el Lyon ganó al Dinamo Zagreb (1-7) en 2011.
Lewandowski abrió el marcador en el minuto 11 al recibir de Thomas Müller y ser derribado por Maximilian Wöber tras controlar y girarse sobre sí mismo en una maniobra de gran calidad. Tras dictaminar el VAR que la falta fue dentro del área, el delantero del Bayern abrió el marcador de penalti.
El 2-0 llegó en el minuto 22 en una acción parecida. Esta vez Leroy Sané puso el balón a Lewandowski, que en su intento de control fue derribado de nuevo por Wöber. El polaco tampoco falló esta vez desde el punto fatídico engañando al meta Philipp Köhn.
Lewandowski, insaciable, también marcó el 3-0 en el minuto 23. Thomas Müller le puso un pase al hueco a la contra, Köhn salió de su área, pero el despeje tropezó en el delantero, el balón salió disparado hacia portería, dio en el poste y el polaco, que tuvo suerte en esta jugada, lo empujó a la red a puerta vacía con el muslo.
Con este 'hat trick' Lewandowski suma 12 goles en la actual edición de la Champions y desplaza a Sébastien Haller (Ajax), que lleva 11, al frente de la lista de máximos realizadores del torneo.
