Robben and Robben bids farewell to Bayern Munich in style.



Departing veterans Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben both scored in their final game at the Allianz Arena on Saturday as Bayern Munich beat Eintracht Frankfurt 5-1 to wrap up a seventh successive Bundesliga title.
The fairytale farewell for club icons Robben and Ribery saw Bayern end an unusually tight title race two points ahead of rivals Borussia Dortmund, who beat Borussia Moenchengladbach 2-0.

Robben and Ribery, who will both leave the club at the end of the season, came off the bench against Frankfurt to score Bayern’s fourth and fifth goals and end Dortmund’s hopes of pulling off a final day miracle or Frankfurt doing them a favour at the Allianz Arena.

Their departure marks the end of a glistening decade of success for Bayern winning  multiple  titles including the Uefa Champions League, Uefa Super Cup,  seven Bundesliga title as the Bavarians are now set for a major squad overhaul ahead of next season.
