International | Lewandowski is crowned

Lewandowski warned. I was in great shape after two months focusing on his enviable musculature, but in the end he only needed a penalty to continue making history. A low shot put Bayern's first win behind the break, this time 2-0 against a rocky Berlin Union, and re-established the difference of four points from the leader regarding Borussia Dortmund. Owe it to the 26 goals from the Pole in 26 Bundesliga matches. He is the top gunner in Germany and the second in Europe. Who said Haaland?

The appointment in the mythical Stadion An der Alten Försterei It started with the most devastating news for the Union. His trainer, Urs Fischer was unable to attend the first official matchup in the club's history against Bayern due to the death of his father-in-law. He was replaced on the bench by his second, Markus Hoffmann, who saw Fischer's plan take effect and the Union stood up to the leader in the early stages of the game.

Hopefully the duel was very physical. The home team had an average height of 1.90 meters and tried to take advantage of this size from the beginning. Bayern was not comfortable with the harassment of the Union and was even forced to avoid bad guys behind. Two shots from Bülter and Ujah showed that the champion's defense had not come out so fine from the break as Flick wished. Neuer, yes, was attentive.

Oberschöneweide's commanded in duels, but Bayern, little by little, adapted to the toughness of the Union and began to unfold its positional game. Thiago was at the helm and, while the Union chose to keep a close watch on Lewandowski, Müller was about to punish the Ironmen out of nowhere. He escaped the tagging and narrowed a Gnabry cross towards the back of the net, but the VAR canceled it correctly for offside.

It was the first warning for A Union that did merit to go to the locker room with the tables in the light, but, finally, he ended up running into Goretzka's cunning. Subotic was about to clear a ball in the box when the smartest in the class stole his wallet and the Berlin defender finished clearing Goretza's leg instead of the leather. Manual penalty, which Lewandowski materialized without problems. 40 goals are already on 34 appearances this season.

Things did not change after the break. The Union was not intimidated by both Bayern and continued to maintain the union in defense. Of course, it did not appear so often in the vicinity of Neuer, who saw how his, once and for all, took the ball and bottled the locals in his area. Goretzka and Lewandowski were able to extend the rent for the Bavarians, but eventually Pavard was in charge of sentencing the first victory of the muniqueses after the break. He did it upside down, at a height greater than 1.90 meters.
