What did Robert Lewandowski say about scoring five goals in nine minutes on Pardon My Take?

Robert Lewandowski called the fifth goal, a volley, his favorite of his career. He started that league game on the bench with a minor injury, came on at half-time with his team losing 1-0 under Pep Guardiola, and kept chasing one more goal. He said he did not grasp what he had done until Christmas, sitting with his family, and that he doubts anyone will repeat it.

• Lewandowski said the opponent was second in the league at the time.
• Over the following few games, played every two or three days, he said he scored about 12 goals.
• Lewandowski estimates his career total at more than 700 goals and says an exact count depends on which games are included.
