Bayer Leverkusen 1-2 Bayern Munich: Last-gasp Lewandowski sends champions top

 


Bayern Munich will end a glorious 2020 at the top of the Bundesliga after snatching a dramatic win at previous leaders Bayer Leverkusen.

Robert Lewandowski's last-gasp strike sent Bayern Munich top of the table as Bayer Leverkusen's unbeaten Bundesliga record this season was dramatically ended with a 2-1 defeat.


A stunning Patrik Schick volley put Leverkusen in front at BayArena on Saturday, but the European and Bundesliga champions came from behind to extend their unbeaten run to 19 matches and replace the hosts at the summit.


Lewandowski celebrated being crowned Best FIFA Men's Player for 2020 this week by taking advantage of a mix-up between Jonathan Tah and goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky to head home late in the first half.
