Lewandowski with Poland at the 2018 FIFA World Cup

Robert Lewandowski is a Polish professional footballer who has been representing the Poland national football team as a forward since his debut in 2008. Since then, Lewandowski has scored 84 goals in 156 international appearances, making him the country's all-time top scorer.[1][2] On 5 October 2017, Lewandowski scored a hat-trick in a 6–1 win over Armenia to take his tally to 50 goals for Poland, surpassing the previous record of 48 goals set by Włodzimierz Lubański to become the all-time top scorer for Poland.[3] Lewandowski made his debut for Poland on 10 September 2008, three weeks after his 20th birthday, against San Marino where he came on as a substitute and scored a goal in a 2–0 away win in 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification.[4][5] Only Włodzimierz Lubański scored a goal on his debut for the national team at a younger age than Lewandowski, having been 16 at the time. Lewandowski scored another qualifying goal against the same team on 1 April 2009, in a 10–0 victory.[6]

On 7 September 2014, in Poland's first UEFA Euro 2016 qualifier, away against Gibraltar, Lewandowski scored his first international hat-trick, netting four goals in a 7–0 win.[7] He has scored six international hat-tricks, and on one occasion, four international goals in a single match. Out of all his opponents, he has scored the most against Gibraltar and San Marino, netting six goals against each team. Lewandowski has scored two goals in the FIFA World Cup, six in the UEFA European Championship, two in the UEFA Nations League and 19 in UEFA European Championship qualification. The remainder of his goals, 30, have come in FIFA World Cup qualification. His most productive calendar years in terms of international goals were 2015 and 2021, when he scored eleven goals in seven and twelve games, respectively for Poland.
