Bayern essentially secured their 20th Bundesliga title with victory over VfB Stuttgart at the Allianz Arena, which left them 12 points clear of Bremen with four games to go and boasting a vastly superior goal difference. Three days after starting and scoring against Zenit St Petersburg in the UEFA Cup semi-finals, Ribery was left on the bench, but ...
Ribery only played for 27 minutes as Bayern eased past the defending champions at the start of the 2009/10 campaign, but it was still a hugely significant game: for the very first time, the Frenchman shared the pitch with his future partner-in-crime Arjen Robben. The flying Dutchman had just arrived from Real Madrid, and was brought on by Louis van...
With six games of the league season remaining, Bayern travelled to the Veltins-Arena to face leaders Schalke, who were two points ahead of them at the top of the table. Ribery put the visitors ahead on 25 minutes, showing smart reflexes to volley home from just inside the area following a corner. A minute later Thomas Müller doubled the Bavarians' ...
By this time, Veh had been given plenty of opportunities to see the damage Ribery was capable of causing, and the Hamburg coach was treated to another masterclass as his side were torn apart at the Allianz Arena in early 2011. The Frenchman set up Robben twice as he fired in a 15-minute hat-trick, then latched onto the Dutchman's pass to lift a coo...
Although the 2011/12 campaign ended in a series of heartbreaks for Bayern, it was statistically the best of Ribery's career in the Bundesliga. The French maestro had a hand in no fewer than 33 goals, scoring 12 and setting up 21, and the 7-1 drubbing of Hoffenheim was a perfect illustration of his unrivalled passing ability. In the space of 17 firs...
Bayern began the 2012/13 Bundesliga campaign with a run of eight straight wins and never looked back, spending all 34 matchdays in top spot, yet perhaps their most spectacular outing came on the final day in Mönchengladbach. Already crowned champions, Bayern found themselves two goals down within five minutes, before Ribery set Javi Martinez away t...
Ribery's body continued to let him down in the 2015/16 season as he only made 13 Bundesliga appearances, and just one before late February. But in early April, he popped up with one of the goals of the season against Frankfurt and their new coach Niko Kovac. When Mario Götze's attempt was deflected up into the air by visiting keeper Lukas Hradecky,...
It was on his 35th birthday a year later that Ribery wrote another line in the Bundesliga history books, joining the inner circle of Bayern legends to have won eight titles: Scholl, Oliver Kahn, Schweinsteiger and Lahm. The Frenchman only featured for eight minutes in Augsburg, as the game was sandwiched between key Champions League clashes with Se...
After announcing that the 2018/19 campaign would be his last as a Bayern player, Ribery enjoyed a fitting farewell in his final Bundesliga outing. The Bayern veteran became the Bundesliga's all-time record champion, with the Bavarians' 5-1 thrashing of Eintracht Frankfurt on the final day allowing the 36-year-old Frenchman to lift an unprecedented ...
