The St. Pauli Chronicle

Mathias Pereira Lage breaks a bone — 14 days out
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 14 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

9 saves: Ben Voll was the team
Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 9 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Joel Chima Fujita in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at St. Pauli this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

A row about effort at St. Pauli
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Martijn Kaars was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Door shut on Max Moerstedt
St. Pauli asked and Eintracht Frankfurt said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Martijn Kaars’s goal not enough for St. Pauli
Martijn Kaars scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to VfL Wolfsburg, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

The view from the dugout
“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 1‑2 defeat, delivered by Dominik Busch to a room that had heard them before.

St. Pauli buy the years ahead of Carlo Evangelista
He is 20, and the scouting reports agree on the only line that matters: the ceiling. Signings like this are lottery tickets written by professionals.
The dugout15 Feb 2027
Marc Guiu knocks on the manager's door
“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at St. Pauli, and both men came out saying it was fine.
