Patrik Schick matches Bundesliga scoring feat achieved by Aubameyang and Lewandowski

Patrik Schick scored the decisive goal as Bayer Leverkusen beat Freiburg on the sixth matchday of the Bundesliga.

The Czech Republic striker has now scored in each of the opening six league matches of the season, placing him among an elite group of Bundesliga forwards.

Schick is only the third player in the competition’s history to achieve the feat. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored in each of the first eight matches of the 2015-16 season, while Robert Lewandowski found the net in the opening 11 games of the 2019-20 campaign.

Schick will next have the chance to extend his run when Bayer Leverkusen face Hoffenheim.
