Lewandowski pounces to push Barca past Getafe

BARCELONA — Robert Lewandowski continued his fine form and earned La Liga leader Barcelona a 1-0 win over Getafe on Wednesday.

The Polish forward struck from close range in the first half to maintain Barca's 100 percent record in the league so far this season with its seventh victory.

Barcelona dominated, despite not being able to add to its lead, and restored its four-point advantage over Real Madrid, which beat Alaves on Tuesday.
