St. Pauli vs Freiburg

Freiburg came from behind to beat St. Pauli 2-1 at the Millerntor, with former youth academy product Igor Matanovic scoring twice to break his old club's hearts on Bundesliga Matchday 27. Danel Sinani had given the hosts a deserved lead in the 24th minute, finishing smartly after an Ando header created the chance. St. Pauli looked well-organized and comfortable heading into the break. The game turned after the restart. Matanovic equalized in the 65th minute, then struck again in the 78th after goalkeeper Nikola Vasilj could only parry a shot from Junior Irié straight into the striker's path. The former St. Pauli youngster pointedly refused to celebrate either goal. The defeat leaves St. Pauli stuck in 16th and deep in relegation trouble, while Freiburg move to within touching distance of the European places.
