FC St. Pauli

The draw at Eintracht Frankfurt took the Boys in Brown to the verge of Bundesliga safety and they now go into the final day against Bochum intent on removing all mathematical doubt. Here’s the pick of the reaction after today’s point.

FC St. Pauli took a huge step towards Bundesliga safety with a 2-2 draw at Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday. After a flying start by the home side and a first-minute strike by  Rasmus Kristensen, the Boys in Brown came from behind to lead thanks to goals from Manolis Saliakas and Morgan Guilavogui. Michy Batshuayi drew Eintracht level midway through the second half, but the Blessin XI saw the game out and go into the final day three points and 13 goals clear of FC Heidenheim.

Next up for the Boys in Brown is a trip to third-placed Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday (17.30 CET). In the run-up to the game, full-back Philipp Treu took time out to speak to the media.
