Lewandowski Scores Again As Bayern Munich Rout Bochum

Written by Oluwaseun Oyediji

Robert Lewandowski scored in consecutive German Bundesliga games this season as Bayern Munich thrashed VfL Bochum 7-0 at the Allianz Arena, Munich.

More Details…

Leroy Sane opened the goals spree in the 17th minute from a free-kick after a clumsy foul by Anthony Losilla and Tobias Welz blows his whistle.

Sane takes the free-kick and sends it towards the bottom right corner of the goal, giving the goalkeeper no chance.

A goal turned to two in the 27th minute. Leroy Sane plays the ball to Joshua Kimmich whose deflected shot from inside the box goes past the helpless Manuel Riemann.

Five minutes later, Serge Gnabry finishes his beautiful individual effort with a superb strike from inside the box. Manuel Riemann is just a bystander as the ball flies into the bottom left corner.

Two minutes from halftime, Vassilios Lampropoulos suffers a good deal of misfortune as he accidentally puts a pass from one of the attacking players into his net.

In the 61st minute, Robert Lewandowski slots the ball into an unguarded net from close range after a shot rebounds off a defender.

Joshua Kimmich made it six for the Bavarians four minutes later. A cross into the box is headed down by Leon Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich does brilliantly to get to the ball and fires home.
