Twitter Reacts as Bayern's Robert Lewandowski Scores 5 Goals in 9 Minutes

In case you weren't aware (where have you been?!), Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski did something remarkable on Tuesday night.

Sitting second in the Bundesliga, Bayern were playing third-placed Wolfsburg at the Allianz Arena. The visitors were leading 1-0 at half-time when manager Pep Guardiola decided to mix things up by bringing on Lewandowksi.
