In a stunning upset, Borussia Dortmund crushed Real Madrid 4-1 in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League semi-final on Wednesday night. Robert Lewandowski was the star of the show, scoring all four goals for Dortmund in a masterful performance.
Dortmund took the lead in the eighth minute when Lewandowski headed home a cross from Marco Reus. They doubled their advantage in the 20th minute when Lewandowski scored again, this time with a powerful left-footed shot from outside the area.
Cristiano Ronaldo pulled one back for Real Madrid in the 32nd minute with a stunning free-kick, but Dortmund restored their two-goal cushion just three minutes later when Lewandowski completed his hat-trick with a close-range finish.
Lewandowski scored his fourth goal of the night in the 55th minute, putting the game beyond doubt and setting a new record for the most goals scored by a player in a Champions League semi-final.
The victory gives Dortmund a commanding lead heading into the second leg in Madrid next week. Real Madrid will need to stage a remarkable comeback if they are to reach the final.
