Lewandowski Sets New Record in Nations League, Dethroning Ronaldo

As far as the UEFA Nations League is concerned, Poland striker Robert Lewandowski has surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo as the oldest player to score a hat trick.

On Friday, Poland pounded Romania 6-0, and Lewandowski was the star player.

On three separate occasions in Warsaw, the 38-year-old found the back of the net.

Not only that, but he scored 92 goals in 170 appearances for Poland, which is a record.

In the 2019 Nations League semi-final match against Switzerland, Ronaldo scored a hat trick for Portugal. He was 34 years and 120 days old at the time.

Lewandowski scored a hat trick against Romania at the age of 38 years and 42 days.
