FC St. Pauli

The Boys in Brown gave a good account of themselves at Germany’s most decorated club, only to go down 3-2. After the game the mood in the camp was one of disappointment at coming away empty-handed, but there were positives to be taken from the performance.

FC St. Pauli lost 3-2 at Bayern Munich on Saturday. Harry Kane gave his side an early lead but Elias Saad levelled ten minutes later as the Boys in Brown gave as good as they got before the break. The home side dictated the proceedings in the second half, however, and a brace from Leroy Sané set them on the road to victory. Substitute Lars Ritzka pulled one back in time added on, but it came too late.

The scoreless draw in the friendly at Hertha BSC marked the return to first-team action of Connor Metcalfe and Robert Wagner. After long injury layoffs, both players were naturally delighted to be back on the pitch alongside their teammates.
