Currently in Barcelona the football star Robert Lewandowski will face his former club Bayern Munich again in the Champions League.
Barcelona met in last season’s group stage, with Bayern twice winning 3-0. Although Barca are now a very different side and headed by striker Robert Lewandowski, who moved to the Camp Nou from Bayern in the close season.
Barcelona has never secured a victory at Bayern, who have emerged victorious in the last four encounters between the teams, tallying an overall score of 17-4. This included a significant 8-2 defeat during the 2020 quarter-finals. Xavi remarked, “I’ve experienced both sides, securing heavy wins and suffering heavy losses against them. While we haven’t clinched a win at the Allianz, we maintain optimism. We can’t become too confident solely based on recent good results, but I’ll be content if we deliver our best performance. If we achieve that, I believe we can alter the course of history.”

Robert Lewandowski Transfer A Regret?
The all time second top goal scorer of Bayern has lost his form or what it seems like. With the titles for best Men’s player in 2020 and 2021 the star player hasn’t managed to really score as many goals that he crossed through the net when he was in Bayern. Although it looks like that he has lost his form but with the capabilities he has we think he will pull up his game soon.
