ROBERT LEWANDOWSKI fired Bayern Munich to an emphatic win over Augsburg.

He then turned provider for Thomas Muller when he whipped a dangerous ball into the box for the German to tap in with 36 minutes gone.
Lew got his second of the game nine minutes after the break, taking Franck Ribery's through-ball in his stride and sending the keeper the wrong way.
The former Borussia Dortmund striker also showed he is not just a deadly finisher.
His assist for Thiago was a class act in itself. A 62nd-minute backheel caught Augsburg's defence off guard and the Spaniard simply had to poke in.
A mistake from keeper Marwin Hitz landed to the worst possible man. Lewandowski gratefully nodded in his third - and 24th league goal this season - with 11 minutes to go.
With the visitors already thinking about the long journey home, centre-back Jerome Boateng hit a sublime ball to play in Muller for his second. The World Cup winner controlled and fired into the bottom corner to complete the humiliation.
