Conclusion:
St. Pauli beat Schalke 2-1, celebrated their third win in the seventh game and remained the only second division team undefeated (four draws). As flattering as the 1-1 score at half-time was for S04, the Knappen deserved more in the second half. After the break, the Royal Blues set the tone and created several top-class chances that should have at least been enough to equalize, while the Kiezkickers again made it clear in the second half with a Hartel dream goal that went unstoppably over the inside post from 16 meters were more efficient. From the back, Boukhalfa was even able to increase the score to 3-1 with a deflected embarrassing shot, which at least wasn’t reflected in the second half. Ripped-off Hamburgers climb to second place, at least overnight.

Tooor for FC St. Pauli, 3-1 by Carlo Boukhalfa

Now the Kiezkickers finally put a lid on the game and increase it to 3:1. Carlo Boukhalfa is not attacked on the right corner of the penalty area, but has neither a free shooting lane nor a passing point. Without further ado, he unleashes a powerful shot, which Tomáš Kalas deflects completely unluckily. The ball rushes over the line in the short corner. Michael Langer, who was already on his way to the far corner, can no longer react.

22:21

There are just four minutes left on top. That’s remarkably little considering the marathon injury times we’ve already experienced this season. Everything now indicates that FC St. Pauli will continue to extend their unbeaten streak this evening.

Schalke keeps trying, but St. Pauli is extremely good defensively. First Tempelmann’s shot from the second row is blocked before Ouwejan pulls the next dangerous cross into the box. However, Brunner can no longer make a decisive impact.

83. Min

22:12

Yellow card for Sebastian Polter (FC Schalke 04)

Polter hits Hartel lightly on the foot in his own third, which results in the referee’s whistle. Polter, who doesn’t want to believe this, then complains too vehemently and is shown a yellow card for complaining.

22:10

Short wobble for Langer: Schalke’s third goalkeeper, who has moved between the posts due to the injuries to Fährmann and Müller, is unable to hold onto the ball when a shot from the second row is far too central and flat. However, nothing else happens because no Kiezkicker player speculates on a mistake and moves forward to follow up.

79. Min

22:09

Smith takes a free kick from the right wing dangerously into the Royal Blues’ box, where Albers holds his own in the duel, but under pressure puts the header well past the Knappen’s goal to the left.

77. Min

22:06

Yellow card for Ron Schallenberg (FC Schalke 04)

Now Schallenberg is clearing Saad in the center. You can give a yellow card, but you don’t have to. The foul is neither excessive nor tactical in nature.

75. Min

22:05

Oops! Vasilj makes a mistake when receiving the ball and passes it to Metcalfe, who is being harassed by two opponents. He, in turn, is lucky that Schallenberg is too impetuous when trying to win the ball. The referee decides on an offensive foul. That could easily have completely backfired.

74. Min

22:03

Ouwejan looks for the starting rumble with his cross from the left wing, but the cross is a little too wide. Brunner secures the ball before it goes out of bounds. However, this also gives the FCSP defense the time it needs to sort itself out accordingly.

71. Min

22:01

There are still 20 minutes left and the game is currently thriving on the fact that both teams are pushing for another goal. Of course, everything doesn’t work out in the fast-paced game. Afolayan just doesn’t anticipate a Hartel pass that ends up going out of bounds.

68. Min

21:58

Meanwhile, Hartel is sniffing out the three-pack. From a complicated angle with a run to the outside, he takes a crisp shot from 14 meters high to the near corner. Langer has to stretch, but is just able to clear the ball for a corner, which also lights up the Gelsenkirchen penalty area because Ouédraogo hits the ball vertically two meters in front of the goal line when attempting to clear it. Ultimately, Schalke can clarify things.

66. Min

21:56

Double change for the guests: Reis brings Ouédraogo and Kozuki.

64. Min

21:54

Great opportunity for Schalke! The Knappen have been the superior team so far in the second half and are creating the next really big chance. Polter is through after a sensational pass from Murkin, claims the ball against the Mets and could then choose the corner. In the one-on-one, however, he fails due to a strong reflex from Vasilj, who stands still for a long time and then extends his hand as the shot comes towards the far corner.

61. Min

21:51

Huge opportunity for Schalke! With a brilliant ball reception, Murkin now has a great chance to equalize again. It’s Saliakis’s turn, but the Gelsenkirchen player delicately puts the ball past Vasilj before Saliakis clears it with a tackle into Kabadayı’s feet. He then erratically puts the follow-up shot over the crossbar from nine meters. Lucky for St. Pauli.

60. Min

21:50

The person who provided the assist to make it 2-1 is now off work. Hürzeler takes Eggestein down and throws Albers into the match.

Tooor for FC St. Pauli, 2-1 by Marcel Hartel

Just when Schalke threatens to get stronger, St. Pauli scores to make it 2-1. Oladapo Afolayan works his way well through the center and serves Johannes Eggestein, who, with his back to the goal, lays it off for the advancing Marcel Hartel. From 16 meters, the goalscorer takes the measure with his left to make it 1-0 and nails the ball to the aluminum for the third time this evening. However, the ball now finds its way into the net via the inside post. A dream goal where Michael Langer has no chance at all.

54. Min

21:44

Really dangerous: Thomas Ouwejan finds Sebastian Polter with the corner from the left, but the attacker pushes the ball just past the corner with his head. Goal kick St. Pauli.

52. Min

21:42

After a short Schalke corner kick, the ball comes too close to the Hamburg goal, but Vasilj wildly punches the ball straight down to Polter’s feet. Before the goal getter can react, the FCSP defense resolutely clears the ball.

51. Min

21:41

The Knappen have been much livelier so far than in the first half. Derry Murkin tries to move in from the left, but his shot attempt is then blocked by Manolis Saliakas for a corner.

48. Min

21:38

The Kiezkickers are also getting closer for the first time. After Polter initially helps out at the back and the situation seems to have been resolved, Saad can move away from the second row. His shot from 26 meters from the left-hand position hits the outside post. Hamburg’s second aluminum hit this evening.

46. Min

21:36

The first action after the break belongs to S04. Polter shields a deep pass perfectly against the Mets and then shoots from an eleven-meter half-right position. The ball hits the side netting.

46. Min

21:35

The teams are back on the pitch. There are no changes yet. Go on.

21:34

Kick-off of the 2nd half

45. Min

21:19

Half-time conclusion:
In a lively game, the score between St. Pauli and Schalke 04 was 1-1 at the break. From the guests’ point of view, it is a very flattering interim result. The FCSP took the initiative right from the start and after a quarter of an hour were creating great chances every minute. However, the overdue goal to make it 1-0 came after a hand penalty. The VAR had previously alerted the referee to a Tempelmann handball. Afterwards, only the Kiezkickers played, but they had to accept the cold shower in almost the only Schalke attack. Ouwejan served Polter perfectly, who hit the ball perfectly and sank it from eleven meters. Even afterwards there was hardly anything to be seen from S04. Recently, however, Hamburg also found it difficult to create clear chances.

45. Min

21:18

End of 1st half

45. Min

21:16

Yellow card for Cédric Brunner (FC Schalke 04)

Brunner just looks at the ball, but first clears Ritzka with his tackle, hitting him brutally on the ankle. While the S04 player cannot believe that he is seeing yellow and insists that he played the ball, it is clear that this action falls more into the dark yellow category.

45. Min

21:15

Yellow card for Marcin Kamiński (FC Schalke 04)

At the beginning of the two-minute stoppage time, Kamiński passes Afolayan’s back in the center. Clear yellow card.

45. Min

21:15

Official injury time (minutes): 2

45. Min

21:15

The greatest speed is no longer possible. Schalke lets the leather circulate calmly in their own third, while St. Pauli suspends the high pressing.

42. Min

21:12

Hartel pulls a corner up into the box, where Smith prevails in the header duel, but presses the leather almost vertically onto the ground with his forehead. Wahl was able to exploit the touchdown, but he headed it past the Gelsenkirchen box on the right.

40. Min

21:11

Saliakas joins the attack on the right, but ultimately the flat cross into the box is too easy to defend. S04 is now more compact defensively.

38. Min

21:09

Furthermore, extremely little comes from the people of Gelsenkirchen, who find it very difficult to free themselves playfully. St. Pauli basically still has everything under control, but they hardly pose a threat to the opposing goal anymore.

35. Min

21:05

After winning the ball in the center, Oladapo Afolayan wants to make it a little too selfish. While Johannes Eggestein would have been completely free and ready to play, the 26-year-old simply shot straight from 17 meters, but missed the visitors’ goal with his right-footed shot.

33. Min

21:02

Yellow card for Connor Metcalfe (FC St. Pauli)

Schallenberg claims the ball in the center, but Metcalfe comes flying in and clears the celebratory player with a rustic body check. This earns him the first yellow card of the game.

31. Min

21:01

Hamburg tries to give a direct answer, but Hartel, who could shoot directly from 15 meters, wants to make it too playful. However, his pass intended for Eggestein is successfully blocked.

29. Min

20:58

Tooor for FC Schalke 04, 1-1 by Sebastian Polter

That is impossible! From a half-chance, Schalke 04 actually equalized out of the blue. Ouwejan is not attacked and then plays a wonderful pass with his inside instep from the left corner of the penalty area into the path of Polter, who stops the ball, hits the ball perfectly and sinks it into the bottom right corner, unstoppable for Vasilj. What a cold shower for the vastly superior neighborhood footballers!

27. Min

20:57

The people of Hamburg are now taking a little time out and trying to lure the guests from the Ruhr area out of their reserve. Schalke is currently running behind the action in almost every situation.

24. Min

20:54

After a foul in the center, Hartel simply takes the free kick from 28 meters. However, the right-footed shot clearly misses the Schalke goal.

22. Min

20:52

On the other hand, Yusuf Kabadayı wants to ensure a quick answer and promptly hits his head against the wall. In fact, he can hold the ball well into the opponent’s penalty area, but then has to do it himself from a tight angle due to the lack of a teammate. However, the high, violent shot at the near corner misses. Nevertheless, it is the miners’ most dangerous action to date.

21. Min

20:50

Tooor for FC St. Pauli, 1-0 by Marcel Hartel

Hartel takes responsibility for the penalty and coolly scores the overdue 1-0 for the Kiezkickers, whose excess of chances in the last five minutes has no consequences. Hartel looks casually at Langer and slides in half-right as the Schalke keeper moves to the left.

20. Min

20:50

The VAR reports and draws the referee’s attention to an alleged handball by Tempelmann, who earlier threw himself into Metcalfe’s follow-up shot, which hit the ball over the crossbar. The pictures actually show: Tempelmann distracts the play equipment with his hand. The referee decides on a hand penalty for St. Pauli!

18. Min

20:48

Posts for St. Pauli! The Hamburg team is pushing hard for the 1-0 lead, but it still doesn’t want to fall. A corner from the left lands at the second post at the free Eggestein, who first fails with a header against Langer and then puts the follow-up shot at the right post. Seguin is a crucial distraction here.

16. Min

20:47

Great opportunity for St. Pauli! The Kiezkickers throw everything forward and almost take a 1-0 lead. After a strong pass from Saliakas, the ball lands at Saad, who shoots from eleven meters. Langer has already been beaten, but Kabadayı prevents the shot on the line before Langer parries the follow-up shot and Metcalfe hits the follow-up shot over the crossbar.

13. Min

20:45

Now Schalke is doing it quickly. However, Kabadayı’s cross, intended for Polter, was safely plucked out of the air by Vasilj.

11. Min

20:41

Ten minutes are over and the Gelsenkirchen team is increasingly constricted in their own half. At the moment there is little relief coming from the miners. St. Pauli increases the pressure.

8. Min

20:39

The Kiezkickers are increasingly taking the initiative. But a deep pass intended for Metcalfe is too long. Fährmann and Müller representative Langer comes out in time and has the ball safely.

5. Min

20:35

The first degree belongs to the FCSP. The attack rolls over to the left via Brunner. Hartel narrowly missed the cross from Eggestein and Metcalfe’s subsequent shot from the second row went well past the Schalke goal to the left. Goal kick.

4. Min

20:33

Tactically influenced initial phase in Hamburg. Both teams are still feeling each other out and trying to figure out the opponent’s orientation.

1. Min

20:30

Kick-off at Millerntor. The home team is dressed entirely in brown, the guests from the Ruhr area are dressed in light blue and white. Let’s go.

20:06

Relegated Schalke is not at all satisfied with the results so far. Just seven points from six league games correspond to the Royal Blues’ weakest result in the lower house since the 1989/90 season. The Knappen have never conceded twelve goals, meaning an average of two goals conceded per second division game, and they could easily have conceded even more. After six league games, no other second division team has such a high expected goals against value as S04 (13.7).

19:56

FC St. Pauli is the only second division team that is still unbeaten after six matchdays (two wins, four draws). Hamburg also has the best defense in the lower house of German football, conceding just three goals from six games, and have not been behind in any of the six games so far. Across all seasons, the Kiezkickers have only lost one of their last 22 second division home games (eleven wins, ten draws). The FCSP goes into the Saturday evening game with corresponding confidence.

19:51

Speaking of Ron Schallenberg: The returnee, who is allowed to play again after his red card suspension, could well become a lucky charm today. The 24-year-old is making his 100th appearance in the 2nd Bundesliga. With his previous club, SC Paderborn, he played five times against FC St. Pauli, scoring five goals and not losing a single one of these games (three wins, two draws).

19:47

In the absence of the injured goalgetter Simon Terrode, who is missing again today (calf problems), S04 won 4-3 in a heated match against Magdeburg last week thanks to double packer Sebastian Polter. Coach Thomas Reis still makes a total of three changes: In addition to Michael Langer, who replaces the injured Marius Müller between the posts, Ron Schallenberg also returns to the first team after a red card suspension. In addition, Yusuf Kabadayı begins. Assan Ouédraogo and Tobias Mohr (both bench) remain outside.

19:43

When you look at the lineups, there are few surprises at FC St. Pauli. The Kiezkickers won 5-1 against Holstein Kiel in the Millerntor Stadium last Sunday. Compared to this victory, there is only one change to the starting line-up: Manolis Saliakas, who is fit again after an illness, has moved back into the starting eleven to replace Philipp Treu (bank).

19:38

In the only season together so far between the two clubs in the 2nd Bundesliga (2021/22), the home team prevailed, with the Kiezkickers having to attend Gelsenkirchen’s promotion celebrations in the 2-3 defeat to Schalke. Overall, FC St. Pauli has lost six of the last seven competitive games against the Knappen (one win).

19:30

Good evening and welcome from the Millerntor Stadium. Here FC St. Pauli welcomes FC Schalke 04 this evening at 8:30 p.m. as part of the 7th matchday of the 2nd Bundesliga.
