Lewandowski's header was set up by Thomas Muller, who racked up his 20th assist of the season and broke Kevin de Bruyne's record for most goals created in a single German Bundesliga campaign.

Second half Leverkusen substitute Florian Wirtz also became a record breaker, notching the final goal of the game and, at the age of 17 years and 34 days, becoming the youngest scorer in Bundesliga history.
