Bayern Munich remained within six points of league leaders and rivals Borussia Dortmund after they defeated Eintracht Frankfurt 0-3, in their final league match of the calendar year, at the Commerzbank-Arena on Saturday evening.
An error from Evan N'Dicka eventually allowed Franck Ribéry to open the scoring for the Bavarians in the 35th minute, before the Frenchman's scuffed-strike doubled the lead in the 79th minute.
Rafinha added a late third in the 89th minute as Die Roten made it five Bundesliga wins from five.
