‘Wow, what an Adonis’- Niko Kovac hails Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski

Borussia Dortmund boss Niko Kovac was full of praise for Robert Lewandowski ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League quarter-final second leg between the two sides.

Lewandowski scored twice against his former side in the first leg and will reach 100 goals for Barcelona if he’s on target on Tuesday night.

Kovac, it’s fair to say, is a big fan of the 36-year-old.

“He’s a great professional,” he told a press conference. “I’ve seen many good ones. But this guy? He lives, eats, drinks like a pro and does everything possible to stay fit.
