  Bundesliga Wrap: Lewandowski Sets Record In Bayern's Win As Jovic Scores Twice To Help Frankfurt See Off Schalke By Omolagba Oluwayemi Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski set another Bundesliga scoring record as the leaders overcame SC Freiburg, BSNsports.com.ng reports. The Poland striker's early opener saw him become the first player to score 21 goals in the first 16 matches. Lewandowski, whose 10 goals in the first five games this term also set a record, is on target to surpass Gerd Muller's 40-goal mark set 49 years ago. Freiburg substitute Nils Petersen levelled with a second-half header before Thomas Muller won it late on but Freiburg will have the woodwork to thank for denying Lewandowski a second after the break, with Leon Goretzka's effort on the rebound then well saved, before Petersen levelled with a diving header just moments after coming off the bench. In the other game of the day, Eintracht Frankfurt defeated Schalke 04 3-1 to move a point above Borussia Mönchengladbach and three off top four. Andre Silva (28) had hardly put Frankfurt in front before Matthew Hoppe (29) equalised for Schalke leaving the scores at 1-1 going into the break. Luka Jovic was then introduced in the 62nd minutes and exactly 10 minutes after his introduction gives Frankfurt lead with his first of the afternoon and his second coming in the first minute of additional time to make it 3-1.
