Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of SC Freiburg 2-1 St. Pauli in the Bundesliga on Sunday, 09 November 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.
SC Freiburg secured a 2-1 victory over St. Pauli at home, a result that aligns with their recent form of a draw and a loss. The win breaks their mini-slump and showcases their resilience, particularly after conceding first in their previous two matches.
St. Pauli, on the other hand, continues their struggle, extending their losing streak to 4 games, which reflects their position at the bottom of the table. Yuito Suzuki’s goal before halftime proved crucial, setting the tone for Freiburg’s second-half dominance.
The match’s turning point came early in the second half when Maximilian Eggestein scored, assisted by Jan-Niklas Beste, putting Freiburg in the lead. This goal not only highlighted Freiburg’s ability to capitalise on opportunities but also underscored St. Pauli’s defensive vulnerabilities.
Despite a late push from St. Pauli, Freiburg managed to hold on, demonstrating their tactical discipline and control over the game’s tempo. Suzuki’s performance was particularly notable, as he not only scored but also played a pivotal role in Freiburg’s attacking strategy.
SC Freiburg dominated possession with 60% compared to St. Pauli’s 40%, reflecting their control over the game’s flow. They also had a significant advantage in corners, with nine to St. Pauli’s three, indicating more sustained pressure in the attacking third.
However, St. Pauli showed greater efficiency in dribbling, with a 67% success rate compared to Freiburg’s 14%, suggesting they were more effective in individual duels. Both teams received two yellow cards, indicating a competitive but disciplined match.
The match’s pivotal moments were the goals scored by Yuito Suzuki in the 40th minute and Maximilian Eggestein in the 50th. Suzuki’s goal, unassisted, gave Freiburg the lead just before half-time, setting a positive momentum. Eggestein’s goal, assisted by Jan-Niklas Beste, came early in the second half and proved to be the match-winner. St. Pauli’s response came in the 69th minute with a goal from Louis Oppie, assisted by Connor Metcalfe, but it was not enough to overturn Freiburg’s lead.
SC Freiburg lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Noah Atubolu in goal and a backline of Philipp Treu, Matthias Ginter, Philipp Lienhart, and Christian Günter. The midfield was anchored by Maximilian Eggestein and Johan Manzambi, with Niklas Beste, Yuito Suzuki, and Vincenzo Grifo supporting Junior Adamu up front. This setup allowed Freiburg to maintain possession and create scoring opportunities, contributing significantly to their victory.
St. Pauli deployed a 3-4-3 formation, with Nikola Vasilj in goal and a defensive trio of Hauke Wahl, Eric Smith, and Karol Mets. The midfield was manned by Arkadiusz Pyrka, James Sands, Joel Chima Fujita, and Louis Oppie, with Mathias Pereira Lage, Martijn Kaars, and Connor Metcalfe leading the attack. Despite their efforts, this formation struggled to contain Freiburg’s attacks and failed to secure a positive result.
Yuito Suzuki was named Man of the Match for his crucial goal in the 40th minute, which set the stage for Freiburg’s victory. His performance was not only about scoring but also about his overall impact on the game, as he played a key role in Freiburg’s attacking strategy. Suzuki’s ability to find space and contribute to the team’s offensive efforts made him a standout player in this match.
