Ribery hit in the face with pitch invader's scarf

A spectator ran onto the pitch and hit Franck Ribery with a scarf in stoppage time of Bayern Munich's 3-1 victory at Hamburg in the second round of the German Cup on Wednesday.

The man ran the width of the field before hitting the French winger, who had secured victory for the cup holders. The intruder was caught by guards and escorted from the pitch.'Fortunately, nothing much happened,' a relaxed and smiling Ribery told German television after the match. 'It was a difficult situation, I didn't see him coming.'Ribery had been booed by Hamburg fans every time he touched the ball.Bayern took advantage of a dreadful Hamburg mistake and a poor refereeing decision to take a two-goal lead before Ribery scored with a deflected shot in the second half.'Our goal is to stay in this competition until the end,' said Bayern captain Philipp Lahm, whose team next faces Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga.(dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.Az
