The winger added another medal to his CV on
Friday night and believes the club's latest
success is a massive boost for their new coach
Franck Ribery dedicated Bayern Munich 's
Super Cup win over Chelsea to Pep Guardiola
after the Bavarians emerged 5-4 victors on
penalties following a 2-2 draw at the end of
extra time.
The Blues took the lead through Fernando
Torres but Ribery's second-half strike saw the
game head into extra time, where Eden
Hazard's goal looked to have sealed the win for
Jose Mourinho's side.
But Javi Martinez intervened with the last kick
of the game to take the match to penalties and
Romelu Lukaku's miss handed the trophy to
Bayern, after David Alaba, Toni Kroos, Philipp
Lahm, Ribery and Xherdan Shaqiri had all
converted from 12 yards.
The Frenchman said: "We fought until the last
minute. It's a well-deserved success for
Bayern. The victory is also important for Pep.
"I have a super relationship with Guardiola. It
was an extraordinary moment when I rushed
over to him [after scoring].
"I told him this is a goal for you, against
Mourinho."
