Philipp Ziereis, on the other hand, was served because there was more in it. “That was very bitter. It felt like every shot from Bochum was in it today”said St. Pauli’s captain.
Pauli tour through Burgstaller
The Paulians, who had recently been greatly improved, began with a powerful and consistent approach. As early as the fourth minute, Guido Burgstaller hammered the ball from three meters away from the bottom edge of the bar, but practically shot himself at himself and with a bit of luck finally maneuvered the ball over the line.
The Bochum team had to digest the early 0: 1, but then they equalized through Zoller (28th). St. Pauli only wobbled briefly and hit back quickly. Daniel Kyereh took the lead again in the 32nd minute. But that didn’t last long either. Even before the change, it was Zoller again, who exploited a carelessness in the cover of the Kiez-Kicker to 2-2.
Unlucky Buballa
In the second round, the St. Paulians came much less dangerously in front of the opposing goal. The longer the game lasted, the clearer the superiority of the guests became. The goal to make it 3-2 for Bochum in the 63rd minute was deserved, albeit a happy one: Daniel Buballa scored an own goal in his 250th game for St. Pauli – but Robert Zulj would have the same goal can attribute whose shot Buballa deflected into his own goal.
Then the Bochum team did it skillfully, kept St. Pauli largely out of the danger zone through their own attacking efforts and were closer to the fourth goal than the hosts to equalize.
Bochum has developed further
It was not only in this phase that you could see impressively that VfL has developed further and that this season is indeed one of the top favorites to return to the Bundesliga. The relegation battle continues for St. Pauli, but due to the clear playful increase there is definitely cause for hope.
St. Pauli will now have the game at the home-strong 1. FC Heidenheim in front of the chest. At the same time, Bochum takes on the Karlsruher on Castroper Strasse SC an.
