Americans Are Dropping Like Flies From Europe’s Top Flights

The 2020-21 season was a banner year for Americans abroad.

But Saturday was not a great day for keeping U.S. internationals in Europe’s top flights, with a number of Americans relegated to lower tiers or unable to gain promotion. 

En El Último Remate De La Temporada, Robert Lewandowski Se Convierte En Leyenda

Con el título asegurado hace un par de jornadas, y un FC Augsburg a salvo del descenso, el último duelo de la temporada del Bayern Munich todavía tenía un par de cosas interesantes para ofrecer.

Pero también uno de suspenso para Robert Lewandowski, quien buscaba romper el récord de goles en una sola temporada de Bundesliga.

Robert Lewandowski Breaks 49-Year-Old Record With Last Kick Of Season

Forty-one — that’s all that really mattered for Bayern Munich in its season finale against Augsburg on Saturday.

Los récords están para romperse. A veces pasan muchos años, pero al final alguien lo hace. ¿Un ejemplo? La máxima cantidad de goles en una temporada de la Bundesliga. En la campaña 1971/72, Gerd Müller anotó 40 veces para el Bayern Munich y puso un registro que sería muy, pero muy difícil de igualar. Sin embargo, 49 años después, alguien afinó su puntería y se puso a la altura de Der Bomber: Robert Lewandowski.

But just like the league match, Leipzig gave Dortmund everything it could handle in the second half. 

Eintracht Player Scores While Sitting Down To Keep Champions League Dream Alive
