Ribery: Scored Bayern's two

Franck Ribery scored both goals for the Bavarians, who are now just one win away from breaking a record they share with Mainz and Kaiserslautern.

Elsewhere, Felix Magath made an unhappy return to Gelsenkirchen as his Wolfsburg side were comfortably beaten 3-0 by Schalke.

Jefferson Farfan put the high-flying Royal Blues in front in the 33rd minute and goals from Ibrahim Afellay and Roman Neustadter in the second half earned them all three points.

Hamburg made it 10 points in their last four games with victory Greuther Furth, who slumped to their fourth home defeat.

Son Heung-min decided the game in the 17th minute with the Bavarians unable to find a response in a tense encounter.

Mainz also won 1-0 but they left it late to become the first side to beat Fortuna Dusseldorf in the Bundesliga this season.

Oliver Fink was shown a red card for the visitors in the 78th minute before Noveski struck five minutes from time to earn the hosts all three points.

Freiburg ended a two-game losing run to condemn Nurnberg to their fourth straight defeat with a 3-0 victory at the Dreisamstadion.

Cedric Makiadi's goal put the hosts in front in the 36th minute, before a penalty from Daniel Caligiuri and a late Marca Terrazzino strike wrapped up the win.
