Robert Lewandowski hit another hat-trick for Bayern Munich in the Champions League tonight as the German heavyweights easily brushed past Dinamo Zagreb 5-0 in Group F.
His third goal, in particular, was something special – scooping the ball over the advancing goalkeeper after some terrific build-up play.
It means that he’s now scored 10 goals in the last seven days – a famous five against Wolfsburg and a brace against Mainz.
Douglas Costa and Mario Goetze were also on the mark as Pep Guardiola’s side made it two wins from two games, racking up eight goals in the process.
Elsewhere, in the absence of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez proved the hero for Barcelona as he scored with eight minutes to go of their Group E clash at home to Bayer Leverkusen.

The Catalans went behind after 22 minutes when Kyriakos Papadopoulos headed home for the guests but Sergi Roberto grabbed an equaliser with ten minutes to go before Suarez stepped up with a gorgeous strike moments later.
Also in the group, there was a surprise in Belarus as BATE Borisov beat Roma 3-2.
Andriy Yarmalenko was on target for Dynamo Kiev as they got the better of Maccabi Tel Aviv in Group G while in Group H, there were wins for Valencia and Zenit St. Petersburg over Lyon and Gent respectively.
