Lewandowski Hits 100-Goal Milestone as Dortmund Bids Farewell to a Legend
Robert Lewandowski continues to etch his name into Borussia Dortmund’s history books. As the prolific Polish striker prepares for his highly anticipated departure from the club at the end of the season, he has delivered yet another iconic moment—his 100th goal in the famous yellow and black shirt.
Lewandowski reached the milestone on Tuesday night by scoring in Dortmund’s 2–0 victory over Wolfsburg in the semi-final of the DFB-Pokal (German Cup), securing his side a place in the final. It was a fitting moment for a player who has defined an era at the club with his relentless goalscoring and consistent excellence.
Since joining Borussia Dortmund in 2010, Lewandowski has amassed his century of goals across all competitions: 71 in the Bundesliga, 10 in the DFB-Pokal, 1 in the German Super Cup, and 18 on the European stage. With this latest strike, he not only underlines his status as one of Europe’s elite forwards but also cements his legacy as one of the club’s all-time greats.
The Polish international currently leads the Bundesliga scoring charts with 17 goals in 29 appearances this season, once again proving indispensable for a Dortmund side that reached the Champions League final in 2013 and has consistently challenged at the top of German and European football during his tenure.
As Lewandowski prepares for the next chapter in his career — a move to domestic rivals Bayern Munich has long been confirmed — attention is already turning to who might fill the void he leaves behind. One potential successor is Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, the explosive Gabonese forward who has shown glimpses of brilliance and is expected to be given more responsibility and playing time next season.
For now, though, the spotlight remains on Lewandowski, whose professionalism, sharp finishing, and knack for rising to big occasions have made him a fan favourite at the Westfalenstadion.
With the German Cup final still ahead, Lewandowski may yet have one more chance to add to his remarkable tally — and to leave Dortmund with another trophy in hand.
