Lewandowski substitute Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting shot FC Bayern Munich into the second round of the DFB Cup.
The 32-year-old attacker scored a total of four times for the record cup winners in an effortless 12-0 (5-0) win against the fifth division club Bremer SV on Wednesday evening.
In the eighth minute, Choupo-Moting opened the scoring for the guests, who in addition to star striker Lewandowski, national goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and Leon Goretzka had stayed in Munich.
After Jamal Musiala (16th) and Bremen's Jan-Luca Warm (27th) increased to 3-0 with an own goal, Choupo-Moting made the break with two more goals (28th, 35th).
Even after the break, the lively scoring continued.
Young strikers Malik Tillman (47th), Musiala (48th), Leroy Sané (65th), Michael Cuisance (80th), again Choupo-Moting (82nd), Bouna Sarr (87th) and Corentin Tolisso (88th) scored the other goals for Bayern.
Bremen's Ugo Nobile saw the red card in the 77th minute because of an emergency brake.
Bayern board member sports director Hasan Salihamidzic criticized meanwhile the whistles of the Munich fans against national soccer player Leroy Sané.
He expects from his own viewers "that they stand behind our players," said the sports director of the soccer record champions.
“Of course everyone gets pissed off when they play badly.
But after the game, during the game, our team has to be supported. ”When Sané played against 1. FC Köln on Sunday, there were whistles and malicious applause from his own fans.
