Back in the elite, but with two defeats in two days under their belt, Sankt Pauli were keen to bounce back for this match against Augsburg. The Bavarian team had also started badly, with a draw and a defeat. In the end, it was Augsburg who got their first victory of the season, winning 3-1.
It was Marius Wolf who opened the scoring just after half-time, confirming a fairly strong domination by his team, which was far superior in all areas of the game. Phillip Tietz doubled the lead (67th minute), and Carlo Boukhalfa still reduced the gap with a quarter of an hour to go. Yusuf Kabadayi joined in the celebrations by scoring his team’s third goal in added time. With this result, Augsburg climbs to tenth place in the standings, while Sankt Pauli remains seventeenth.
