He scored three goals in Poland's 6-0 victory over Romania in Warsaw, marking Poland's first win of the Nations League campaign.
Lewandowski's goals came in the 24th, 47th, and 86th minutes, bringing his international goal tally to 92 in his record-extending 170th appearance for Poland. The Polish Football Association confirmed that this was Lewandowski's seventh hat-trick for the national team.
