Ingolstadt vs. Bayern Munich: Score, Reaction from 2016 Bundesliga Match

Bayern Munich became the first team ever to win four Bundesliga titles in succession after defeating Ingolstadt 2-1 on Saturday, where Robert Lewandowski’s brace etched his team’s name in the German history books.

The Poland striker brought his goal tally up to 29 for the season after bagging two in the space of 17 minutes at Audi-Sportpark, driving Der FCB to a crown-clinching result in the process.

Ingolstadt attacker Moritz Hartmann halved the hosts’ deficit just before half-time, and despite a tetchier performance in the second period, Bayern had enough about them to see out the victory.

Bayern’s official Twitter account was quick to celebrate a historic four-peat, with manager Pep Guardiola picking up his third Bundesliga crown since arriving at the helm:

Bayern’s push in the opening 15 minutes of the match was a relentless one, and it took the travelling outfit just a quarter-of-an-hour to take their hosts by surprise and head into an early lead.

Some fine buildup play from Douglas Costa and Franck Ribery ended with the latter going down under a Marvin Matip tackle, but Ross Dunbar of German outlet DW Sports argued the Frenchman went down too easily:

@themadelf66 He clearly didn’t. Ribery turned into the player. Smart, but terrible refereeing.
