It was Robert Lewandowski who ensured Bayern Munich entered the interval with a 2-0 lead Saturday as he scored both goals in the first half of his side's fixture versus Paderborn.
Lewandowski's first goal, in particular, resulted from the excellent buildup Bayern deploy on a weekly basis. After Arjen Robben took out Paderborn's entire backline with an excellent first-touch chip in the 24th minute, Lewandowski took all the time in the world before slotting his shot past a helpless Lukas Kruse.
Lewandowski now has three goals in his last two Bundesliga appearances after scoring just once in the seven previous matches.
