“Machines”, “They’re in a different league”, “Battle of the Titans”

Arling Braut Holland and Robert Lewandowski simply refuse to stop. The Norwegian star of Dortmund went up in a frenzy tonight (Saturday) against champions Bayern Munich as well, when in 9 dream minutes he scored two goals in Manuel Neuer’s net and stunned the Bavarians, but even before the end of the half it was the Pole who answered with a big double of his own. Later, Lewandowski completed a huge hat-trick in the champion’s crazy 2: 4.

As usual, Holland also smashed achievements. The last time two goals were scored for Bayern’s net at home in the first nine minutes was somewhere in 1977 by Duisburg. The one who conquered a duo at the time was Ronald Worm. In addition, Holland scored 4 goals against Bayern in 2020/21 when the only one to score more than him in one season was Cristiano Ronaldo with 5 goals in the 2016/17 season.

On social media, of course, the two big stars were delighted, that even before the meeting it was known that they would be in focus, but the madness in 45 minutes was phenomenal. “Machines”, “Sit back and enjoy”, “That’s how two of the greatest meet”, “Battle of the Titans”, “These two are just in their own league”, were just some of the things that were written.

And what about the numbers? Well, Lewandowski scored 36 goals in all competitions in just 33 appearances. On the other hand, the 20-year-old Holland scored 28 goals in 28 games. The balances are just crazy of the two.
