Attackers have always led the way for various teams because football is all about scoring goals.

This season has seen several strikers emerge as forces to reckon with, but most of the top performers have been strikers that we know.

Erling Haaland has continued his rise to the top of world football and he is rivalling Robert Lewandowski for the best striker in the world at the moment.

At the weekend, both players faced each other as Borussia Dortmund clashed with Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga.

Dortmund raced into a 2-0 lead within 9 minutes of the game thanks to a brace from Haaland.

However, Lewandowski would not watch the youngster end the game as the best player on the night.

The veteran striker took over and hauled Bayern back into the game with a brace of his.

He ended the game with three goals and helped Bayern maintain its dominance over Dortmund.

His goals in that game mean he has scored in each of his last five matches, and he has five goals in his last two games.
