Nurnburg dominated the first half as Bayern struggled to keep, but gained ground in the second half. Phillip Lahm crossed the ball for Franck Ribery to score a rare headed goal on the 69th minute.<br />

10 minutes later, Dutch winger Arjen Robben cut in from the right side and slid in a shot to seal the home side's victory and a vital three points to keep up with rivals Borussia Dortmund.&nbsp;<br />

David Alaba missed a 33rd minute penalty that could have made it an emphatic victory.&nbsp;
