Always Scoring in 8 Bundesliga Matches, Lewandowski and Aubameyang Equalizes their Records

DBasia.news –  Although Bayern Munich only drew 2-2 against Augsburg in the Bundesliga, their striker, Robert Lewandowski, made a special record and matched Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s record.

The success of scoring against Augsburg has made Robert Lewandowski tear the opponent’s net in the first eight weeks of the Bundesliga 1 this season. He matched a similar record posted by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in 2015-16.

When compared, the Bayern Munich mainstay striker was even superior to the former Borussia Dortmund bomber. In eight games earlier this season, he was able to score 12 goals. Meanwhile, Aubameyang only scored 10 goals in the eight weeks of the 2015-16 season.

At Bayern Munich, before Robert Lewandowski, the last player to score in eight consecutive matches on the Bundesliga 1 stage was Roy Makaay. The Dutch striker did it in five games at the end of the 2004-05 season and three matches at the start of the 2005-06 season. In total, he packed 16 goals in eight matches.

Despite being able to match Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s record, scoring in eight consecutive matches on the Bundesliga 1 stage was not Robert Lewandowski’s best achievement. When defending Borussia Dortmund in the 2012-13 season, he had not missed scoring in 12 Bundesliga 1 matches. However, at that time, he had missed two times because of a red card.

Robert Lewandowski’s row of eight goals is still far from Gerd Mueller’s record. In the 1969-70 season, the legendary German national team striker kept breaking into the opponent’s goal in 16 consecutive matches!
