Robert Lewandowski: Internet (and Pep Guardiola) reacts to five quick fire goals from the Bayern Munich striker
The Poland international scored five in nine minutes against Wolfsburg

Robert Lewandowski scored five goals in nine minutes for Bayern Munich last night after coming on as a half-time substitute.
To put that in context, that's more than Liverpool, Newcastle and West Brom have scored all season. It's one more than Wayne Rooney has scored in the Premier League in all of 2015. And it's also one more that Mario Balotelli scored in his entire Liverpool career.
Unsurprisingly, Lewandowski also broke a few records. Among them was the quickest Bundesliga hat-trick (four minutes), then a new record for four goals in the same match and then likewise for five. He also became the first Bundesliga substitute to score more than a hat-trick and scored five in the fastest time in a major European league since Opta started recording stats.

In addition to all that, Wolfsburg had not conceded a single goal in their four previous games.
The internet understandably went into meltdown, here's some of the best reaction...
Even Bayern Munich's own Twitter feed couldn't handle it...
Speaking after the match, Pep Guardiola said: "I can't really understand it. Five goals. Neither as a coach nor as a player did I ever experience something like this and I can't really explain it. Five goals against Wolfsburg are never easy."
