20 goals and 18 appearances. The Polish striker FC Barcelona Robert Lewandowski is in great form and he showed it on the pitch of Celta Vigo (2-2) on Saturday evening. The Blaugrana ‘9’ reached the mark of 20 goals this season and equaled Harry Kane (20). He has 5 more goals than Erling Haaland (15).
Messi, only player to have scored more
We have to go back 13 years, during the 2011/2012 season, to find traces of such a start to the season from a Barça scorer. This is obviously Leo Messi, scorer 22 times in the first 17 matches. It took him one game less than Robert Lewandowski to reach twenty goals. In the 17th match, he scored a hat-trick against Viktoria Plzen in the Champions League.
Even better with Bayern
Robert Lewandowski has already managed to score 20 goals in fewer matches during his career. More precisely, it was in 2019/2020 and in 2021/2022. He was then playing for Bayern Munich and he had scored around twenty goals in 16 games, two fewer than during the current financial year.
Launched like a rocket
In 18 matches this season, ‘Lewy’ has scored 20 goals. But he only found the net during 12 matches. He scored several doubles, including one against Red Star Belgrade. He also scored a hat-trick against Alavés (0-3).
Pichichi on all fronts
Top scorer in La Liga and the Champions League, Lewandowski has a comfortable lead over Vinicius (15 to 8) in the league. But the Brazilian played two matches less. In European competition, he scored 5 goals, as many as Harry Kane, Viktor Gyokeres and Raphinha (all 5 goals).
