Champions League on Betfair: Madrid Pole-axed by lethal Lewandowski

Robert Lewandowski was in four-midable form against Real

After Bayern Munich last night, tonight it was the turn of Borussia Dortmund to put four past one of the Spanish giants. Mike Norman brings us the In-Play odds matched...

Just like their compatriots on Tuesday night, Borussia Dortmund have taken a huge step towards Wembley for the Champions League final after destroying Real Madrid 4-1 at Westfalenstadion this evening.

But if you thought that was the only big story of the night then think again. All four Dortmund goals were scored by the same man - the brillint Robert Lewandowski creating history by becoming the first player to score four goals in a Champions League semi-final leg.

Dortmund were matched at a high of 3.211/5 for victory and it all looked to be going well when Lewandowski - backed at 7.87/1 in the First Goalscorer market - scored the opener on just the eight minutes mark. But immediately after having a strong penalty claim denied the German side were pegged back after an error from Mats Hummels led to Cristiano Ronaldo tapping home from close range.

The Half Time 1-1 Score was matched at a high of 11.5n/a In-Play with the 1-0 to Dortmund being matched at a low of 1.171/6 as half time approached.

Jurgen Klopp's men flew out of the blocks in the second half and it wasn't long before they were 3-1 up after Lewandowski first beat the offside trap for his second goal of the night, and then finished superbly to clinch his hat-trick. The Pole was matched at 55.054/1 to achieve the feat.

And to cap a magnificent night for the German outfit Lewandowski smashed home a penalty (Penalty Taken matched at 4.03/1) with around 25 minutes remaining after Xabi Alonso barged into the back of Marco Reus.

The Any Unquoted score (any side to score at least four) was matched at 15.5n/a during the game, while the 4-1 Correct Score was matched at a huge 80.079/1.

Like their Spanish rivals Barcelona, the result leaves Jose Mourinho's Madrid with a massive task in the second leg next week. Real are 1.674/6 to win on the night, but available to back at 12.011/1 to win the competition outright.
