Bayern Munich made it eight straight wins with a 3-1 win at Greuther Furth, but Robert Lewandowksi's scoring streak came to an end. The Polish striker has scored in 19 consecutive games but couldn't make it 20.
Of those 19, 15 were Bundesliga games, which is one shy of Gerd Muller's record of 16 which has stood since 1969/70.
It was Thomas Muller who got Bayern on the way after just 10 minutes, finishing coolly with a first-time left-footed shot after the ball broke to him just inside the area.
Before half time, the Bavarians had doubled their lead and this time it was Joshua Kimmich putting on the finishing clinic, with an even better goal, placing his shot perfectly in the bottom corner from well outside the box.
A Sebastian Griesback own goal put the game beyond any doubt in the 68th minute, although the home side did give their fans something to cheer about with a late consolation goal courtesy of the head of Rangers loanee Cedric Itten.
The win means that Bayern put three points between themselves and Wolfsburg, who travel to Hoffenheim on Saturday looking to catch up again.
Bayern continue rampant and the early struggles for Julain Nagelsmann seem a distant memory.

Give that man a medal, he scores the media talks about it and if he doesn’t they still talk about it.

when lewandowski scores and when he is not, look the difference, he provide nothing for the team other than goals, of course goals win you matches but it is not the whole picture of football, and yet some call him a favourite for ballon d or, tapins and panelties doesn't win you awards

He is a striker what else do you expect him to do? Be a playmaker? Create chances? And for who to finish?

He can scored all that goals in the Germans league but not in EPL
I feel ManU fans are getting mad just because Ronaldo comes to play in EPL ,it doesn't mean EPL is everything... go get rid of your sickness, you may mad because you lost 1 trophy don't worry 3 more to go......Do you know messi scored more goal against top 5 EPL club then any of your player even Ronaldo as well while not in EPL. So shut you mouth because when you open it you only throw garbage from it ...
