The Barcelona striker managed a “double” in the first leg of the duel from “quarters” with Borussia Dortmund. The supporters of his former team did not forgive him.
Robert Lewandowski played for four years in the T-shirt of Borussia Dortmund, between 2010 and 2014, and won two titles with yellow-blacks in the Bundesliga. But after leaving for Bayern, he gave them goals where he caught him: 27 in so many meetings!
On Wednesday night, he continued his series, tonight in the Barcelona T-shirt. He scored the former team two goals and reached 29 in 28 games. A real nightmare for the supporters of Borussia, who this time they burst. Not because of his successes, but the fact that he celebrated them together with the Barurian teammates. Which they consider “a lack of respect for the former team.”
Fans protest on social networks: “I was embarrassed”
“Just one question: Did anyone ever tell Lewandowski that BVB is his former club, who discovered and laid the foundation for his career?” he asked a fan in a post on the “X” platform. And another emphasized: “Even as a Werder fan, I was embarrassed by what Lewandowski did.”
Some have appealed to a language “under the belt” to the Polish. “A pathetic mercenary”, was one of the harsh, but published messages that appeared on “X”. Lewa also gave Bayern, in the duel in the unique group, but it did not enjoy, what the fans of Borussia again did not do well: “We do not count, only Bayern.”
Robert Lewandowski: “I'm happy”
After the final whistle, Lewandowski had commented: “We still don't think about the semifinals. We always want to play. We go to Dortmund to win. We made a very good second half.
We have to continue playing like that. This is the level of the Champions League. We behaved like a team, this is the most important. It doesn't matter if it marks the attackers, the team is important.
It's a step forward, but we still have other steps to take. I am happy for the 99 goals scored for Barcelona. I want to help the team with my goals. “
