Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski shows respect after netting vs Bayern Munich | OneFootball

Barcelona star Robert Lewandowski made clear his respect for former employers Bayern Munich late this evening.

As much comes after the Pole found the net against Vincent Kompany’s troops on the continent.

Barca and Bayern are of course currently locked in action, in a Champions League clash in Catalunya’s capital.

With 45 minutes on the clock, it is the former who boast the advantage when it comes to the scoreline, owing to goals on the part of Raphinha (2), and the aforementioned Robert Lewandowski.

The latter’s strike arrived late in the first-half, when Fermín López did superbly to keep a ball over the top alive, before squaring for Lewandowski to slot home into an empty net.

This marked the Pole’s 15th goal of what has been a scintillating opening to the campaign.

What set it apart, however, was that it was not followed by a celebration on Lewandowski’s part.

Keen to show his respect to the club with whom he enjoyed the most successful years of his career, Barcelona’s veteran frontman did not break out his customary ‘fists together’ post-goal gesture:
