Lewandowski Delighted With 200th Bayern Munich Goal
Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski is left exhilarated after scoring his 200th competitive goal for the Bavarians.
With the Bundesliga champions earning a 3-0 victory over Serbian side Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League opener on Wednesday, Polish centre-forward Lewandowski also celebrated a milestone after scoring the second goal of the night which was his 200th goal for the Allianz Arena outfit.
"We always had the game under control and played well, we upped the pace and created a lot of chances," Lewandowski said as he reflected on the Group B clash.
"But we didn't score enough goals. We always tried to get forward. Sometimes we might have made wrong decisions, but these are little things. In the end it was only three goals, but it could have been five or six.
"You need games like today to help with a good analysis, to see what you can do better. After the second goal, it got easier. I'm glad I scored again."
Lewandowski joined Bayern Munich from Borussia Dortmund for a reported €4.5 million on a four-year contract.
The 31-year-old goal poacher, who bulged the net 22 times in thirty-three Bundesliga games as he provided seven assists for Bayern last season has scored 7 goals after four appearances in the new season.
Bayern are top in Group B with three points where they are paired with last season’s losing finalists Tottenham Hotspurs, Olympiacos and Red Star Belgrade.
After sharing spoils in their last league game against RB Leipzig, Niko Kovac’s side will look to record a win when they host newly promoted FC Koln on Saturday.
