FC St. Pauli put up with the bitter defeat from the top game at Darmstadt 98 and recaptured the top of the table in the 2nd Bundesliga.
In a catch-up game on matchday 13, the Hamburg team defeated the penultimate SV Sandhausen 3-1 (2-0) and expanded their club start record to seven wins in seven home games.
Guido Burgstaller (2nd) with his eleventh goal of the season and Daniel-Kofi Kyereh (14th) made things seem clear at the Millerntor early on.
Immanuel Höhn (67th) brought the guests back before Kyereh restored the old gap after a counterattack (79th).
Pauli has three points ahead of the lilies from Darmstadt, who scored 0: 4 on Saturday.
Kyereh served Burgstaller spectacularly with the hoe, the Austrian finished with a cool flick for an early lead.
St. Pauli remained the clear dominant team in front of 23,401 spectators and could have led significantly higher than with two goals at the break.
After the break, the home side lost a bit of bite, Sandhausen found its way back into the game and came up.
The game was actually scheduled for November 7th.
However, it could not take place as planned because Sandhausen did not have the minimum number of players required by the DFL game regulations after a corona outbreak.
