Robert Lewandowski only needed 3 minutes to score on Scotland

Robert Lewandowski is the hottest forward in the world. Scotland defender Russell Martin did not get the memo.

First, he doesn't track Lewandowski's run. Then, as he tries to recover, he drifts behind the rest of his back line and plays Lewa onside. This put Poland up 1-0 on Scotland in a crucial Euro 2016 qualifying game, and gave Lewandowski his 13th goal in five games. (UPDATE: He later made it 14 goals in five games with a late equaliser.)
