Match Report
Karlsruher SC had more of the ball and the cleaner chances, but FC St. Pauli took the two moments that counted. Abdoulie Ceesay opened it in the 32nd minute, meeting Connor Metcalfe’s assist to give St. Pauli a lead against the run of play, and Lars Ritzka added the second shortly after the break from Eric Smith’s pass. St. Pauli spent long stretches under pressure and created little beyond those strikes, while Karlsruher SC kept pushing without finding a way through. Ceesay was named player of the match for the goal that broke it open. The result leaves St. Pauli seventh on 10 points after seven games and Karlsruher SC 17th on five.
