Robben suffers injury in Bayern win
Carlo Ancelotti earned a narrow win on his Bayern Munich debut, but the friendly victory was marred by Arjen Robben's injury.
Arjen Robben gave Bayern Munich a fresh injury scare as Carlo Ancelotti's first game in charge of the Bungesliga champion ended in a thrilling 4-3 win over Lippstadt.
The Netherlands international was restricted to 15 league matches during an injury-hit 2015-2016 and he pulled up during a sprint in the 36th minute, with youngster Mario Crnicki taking his place.
Robben had been in fine form until his injury, playing a role in Julian Green's opener after nine minutes before doubling Bayern's lead with a trademark cut in from the right.
Franck Ribery, who himself missed large parts of last season as a result of fitness woes, fired in Bayern's third in the 33rd minute and Marvin Joswig's own goal five minutes after the restart had seemingly put the visitors out of sight.
However, Lippstadt, which plays in Germany's fifth tier, mounted an unlikely comeback attempt, started by Marcel Rump in the 51st minute.
Stefan Parensen headed home Lippstadt's second shortly afterwards and Paolo Mailla made it 4-3 in the closing stages, but time ran out for the hosts.
Ancelotti will be happy enough with Bayern's workout despite Lippstadt's revival, with several of his first-team regulars still unavailable because of their participation at UEFA Euro 2016.
