The Poland international picked up a host of prizes for his exploits for the Bavarians following his remarkable performance against Dieter Hecking's Wolfsburg side
Robert Lewandowski has picked up four Guinness world records for his five-goal haul in Bayern Munich's 5-1 Bundesliga win over Wolfsburg in September.
With the Bavarians 1-0 down at half-time, coach Pep Guardiola turned to the Poland international from the bench and the striker quickly set about turning the match on its head, netting five goals in nine second-half minutes to easily see off the 2014-15 Bundesliga runners-up.
The performance, earning praise from around the football world, has now been commemorated by Guinness, who have awarded Lewandowski with four world records.
The Pole now holds the records for quickest hat-trick, quickest four-goal haul, quickest five-goal haul and most goals by a substitute, cementing his display against Wolfsburg in history.
Despite such a remarkable goalscoring performance, Lewandowski remains behind Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the Bundesliga scoring charts, with the Borussia Dortmund forward on 17 goals for the season so far, while the Bayern striker has netted 14.
