Lewandowski, who joined Bayern Munich from Borussia Dortmund on a free transfer, scored twice in Bayern's first game of the season – a thrilling 2-2 draw at home to Hertha Berlin.

The Pole then grabbed a fine hat trick in the 3-0 demolition of Schalke 04 before getting in one more goal in the 6-1 annihilation of Mainz.

Lewandowski's solitary strike in the DFB Pokal came against Energie Cottbus when Bayern ran away with a 3-1 victory.
