BERLIN (Reuters) - Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski equalled the Bundesliga record for most goals after seven matches when he struck twice as the champions beat Mainz 05 3-0 on Saturday to stretch their lead at the top to five points with their seventh straight victory.
Lewandowski's 10 goals since the start of the campaign equalled Gerd Mueller's tally from the 1968/69 and 1977/78 seasons with the Bavarians top on a maximum 21 points and Borussia Dortmund, in action against Darmstadt 98 on Sunday, on 16 in second place.
