Substitute Robert Lewandowski made Bundesliga history on Tuesday after scoring five goals in the space of nine minutes as Bayern Munich came from behind to rout Wolfsburg 5-1 and move top of the standings.
WATCH: Robert Lewandowski scoring his five goals

“I’m very satisfied. It was a crazy few minutes,” said Lewandowski, who scored the league’s quickest ever hat trick and five goals. “Five goals is incredible. I’m very happy.”
His feelings of amazement were shared by Bayern coach Pep Guardiola.

“I don’t think I’ll see it again,” Guardiola said. “Football is crazy sometimes.”
Bayern were 1-0 down at the break for the third time in six games this season.
But then Lewandowski came on for the second half and changed everything. He equalised in the 51st, put Bayern ahead a minute later, and completed his hat trick when he hit the post, then the goalkeeper and kept going till he scored. Three goals in three minutes, 22 seconds.

It was the Bundesliga’s fastest hat trick ever, bettering Michael Toennies’ five-minute feat against Karlsruher SC goalkeeper Oliver Kahn on August 27, 1991 for Duisburg.
“I had this record for 24 years,” Toennies, now a Duisburg official, was quoted as saying on the club’s Facebook page. “Of course it’s a bit of a pity it’s gone now. But what Robert Lewandowski conjured was simply sensational. You deserve it Robert! Congratulations!”
Still Lewandowski wasn’t done.

The Poland striker scored again in the 57th and claimed another goal three minutes after that, when he met Mario Goetze’s cross with a scissor kick into the top corner.
He might have claimed a sixth only for Ricardo Rodriguez to block his effort on the line in the 69th.
“When we all look at each other and see how stunned we are, there’s no need for words,” Wolfsburg substitute Maximilian Arnold said.

Lewandowski is the first substitute in the history of the Bundesliga to score five goals in one game and they were the quickest scored by anybody.
“I had a little knock last week but I’m OK now,” Lewandowski said. “It was a great evening for me. But it was the sixth game. There are many more to come. I know it won’t be so easy.”
