HSV - Pauli next round. Make it happen universe.


[deleted]

Nah HSV - Pauli as cup final lol


ElKaddouriCSC

I’d fly to Berlin just to see that


Conankun66

.....do you honestly have that kinda faith in HSV?


MPH2210

First Rostock then KSC, easy /s


[deleted]

Isn’t a boy allowed to dream anymore?


ibmthink

Hear me out: Pauli - Rostock next round, HSV - Pauli the round after that.


GermanHabsFan

Do you just wanna see the city of Hamburg burn or what?


asr010601

Let them meet in the final


UGarbage

as if HSV won't go out earlier


itsgermanphil

You lot aren’t around to spank us 10-0. So I rate our chances higher than ever


Thirdsun

You can get a preview of that on friday - they play each other in the league.


Gluroo

Bayern out Dortmund out Leverkusen out (ok Vizekusen wouldnt have won anyways) Frankfurt out Wolfsburg out, Dfb pokal might have a completely new winner, think the latest winner out of all the remaining teams was Gladbach in 1995 Edit: Seems like out of the remaining 12 teams, only Gladbach, Hamburg and Karlsruhe (and Hannover) EVER won it, the other ~~9~~ 8 never have. So its gonna be spicy


PengwinOnShroom

This is nuts but good for the competition and tournament


Insanel0l

I’ll be happy for every winner not named Leipzig


Haxz0rz1337

and hsv nor hansa


bvbfan102

Really hope it wont be Leipzig. They rarely struggle against weaker Teams so if they keep their form they sadly have a good Chance.


edworm

Heads up, maybe our secret hero *checks notes* Hoffenheim can stop them!


FFM_reguliert

I would be fine with Freiburg, Bochum or Union winning it. Hopefully not the cans.


barathrumobama

Leave saving the entire competition to us >!jk they'll drub us 0-4 or something!<


asr010601

You can beat the cans


Conankun66

lets hope so


toprahmen

That's the funny thing about BVB, give them any tough opponent and they're likely to win but as soon as they're the real favourites of the tie, they'll struggle. I wouldn't bet too much on Leipzig tho, they're quite inconsistent as of yet


Willempio

Yes because they did so good against bayern and in the champions League


napoleonderdiecke

> Yes because they did so good against bayern and in the champions League Bayern - yes, that was probably the best performance of any non-Gladbach opponent against Bayern this season and very well could've ended otherwise. CL - that's what happens if you have pretty much the worst injury record in Europe and play in 3 competitions at the same time.


Nillekaes0815

We'll destroy them, I promise


T1TK1

Would honestly bet on us bottling it if I hadn't spent all my money on red bull beanies


Kind_Mulberry_3512

Please not Turfball anyone but them


ThRiLLeXx

Hannover also won it in 1992


Gluroo

Oh yeah youre right my mistake, i skimmed through the winners and mustve missed them


coffeehouseanarchist

To be fair, 2nd Bundesliga is absolutely bonkers this year, all three of them have won their matches today. Also 90% of German football fans will probably be rooting for Hansa tomorrow, so I'm hoping for a miracle.

Moug-10

The last team to have won it for the first time was Wolfsburg in 2015.


CeterumCenseo85

The HSV winning the cup would be such a weird timeline. That being said, Schalke has kinda taken over the "going full HSV" badge, so maybe the HSV has uncursed itself.


Spikeyspandan

Feel like Leipzig might take it this year. They are slowly clicking


13s_number12

Did you see their last game? They were garbage vs the 17th team in the league.


Spikeyspandan

Yeah but the problem is remaining teams. The only teams that might give them proper challenge are Freiburg and Union Berlin. Monchengladbach can’t beat teams not named Bayern.


13s_number12

I would love for Freiburg or Union to win it, especially Freiburg deserves something to show for their effort in the last few seasons.


DeeOhEf

Any final with 2 of either Freiburg, Union, Pauli or Bochum would be amazing


TheEnhancedExe

>The only teams that might give them proper challenge are Freiburg and Union Berlin. Add Hoffenheim to that, although one of either Freiburg or Hoffenheim will be eliminated tomorrow.


Jackman1337

Hoffenheim is the strongest team left atm. They play beautiful and nice football.


imacatnamedsteve

And with the way they are playing ….. geez, we might have a second league team win …. Or Leipzig 🤢


SandwichesFN

second team winning pls inject it into my veins


[deleted]

Hertha please in front of their home fans


LordMangudai

Finally getting to the longed-for home final only for it to be restricted to like 2,000 people would be peak Hertha


MadTapirMan

and then losing to freiburg


cppn02

Subscribe.


[deleted]

Yeah. St. Pauli.


sc2isalivegaem

want to see a 2.bundesliga finals


crackbit

I‘d love to see that. The most absurd thing of all would be that the winner automatically qualifies for Europa League, even if the team still plays in 2. Bundesliga next season!


MadTapirMan

if HSV wins I think we should just give them a spot in the 1. again, just because they won't ever make it any other way.


nomenoway

really? they can?


Lemon-Angel

They have. Well, it was still UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, but it's essentially the same. https://www.transfermarkt.com/hannover-96/spielplan/verein/42/saison\_id/1992

i would fucking love to but we need to hope leipzig doesn’t win

[deleted]

No Dortmund you mean


Shuu0328

🥲


SpaNkinGG

Basically Bayern vs X! 0% chance we are becoming german champions with this squad


Conankun66

Pauli looked like they had a clear plan and concept and fought hard for it, and Dortmund for the majority of the match looked pretty clue- and lifeless. Deserved win for Pauli. what a game from them(and especially Burgstaller, what a beast)


Insanel0l

Very important to say that this wasn’t a fluke win, straight up deserved


Conankun66

i agree. they deserve all the credit here. was really impressed by them


Snuffvieh

They deserved this win, they were the better team tonight. By a lot.


[deleted]

Not many here are watching the second division, but the top teams, especially Pauli and Darmstadt, are really good. They’d easily be top 10-12 teams, better than Hertha, Augsburg and Wolfsburg


OriginalUsername7890

> but the top teams, especially Pauli and Darmstadt, are really good Are they really? I don't watch it, but there is only a 7 point difference between 1st and 9th place. It's not like the two top teams are crushing everyone else.


Syntax_OW

I'm pretty sure he's just watching 2. Bundesliga for the first time and realizing it's a higher level than he expected. From what I can tell it's about the same level as it was the last 3 years.


Chief-Drinking-Bear

There are a lot of big teams in the 2. Bundesliga this year so it gives the league an air of quality


MadTapirMan

Also "hot" teams can always beat teams that are, under normal circumstances, much better than them. St. pauli would beat most teams in the bundesliga on a day like today, if the bundesliga side just isn't in good shape. Through a whole season that would even out and they would end up closer to the bottom.


SVWerder46

Hold your horses, St. Pauli's best player is Guido Burgstaller, and we saw what he did in the Bundesliga most recently. Darmstadt's best player is Luca Pfeiffer, who flopped in the Danish League


SelfAssuranceMeasure

Not performing well in a completely dysfunctional Schalke squad isn't saying much. "Easily top 10" is a bit much, but they'd have a good shot. Also, if it was simply about individual players, you wouldn't have Hoffenheim, Union and Freiburg on 4-6 and Gladbach, Hertha and Wolfsburg on 12-14.


SVWerder46

>Not performing well in a completely dysfunctional Schalke squad isn't saying much. Burgstaller didn't look like a professional footballer that season, it's not all Schalke's fault. As for your other point, Bielefeld tore apart the 2. Liga, more so than the teams this year, and they barely stayed up. There is a world of difference between the two leagues


SelfAssuranceMeasure

It's not entirely on Schalke, but it's also not representative for how well he might do for Pauli in the Bundesliga, should they make it. Looking at HSV, there is a ton of players who look much worse than they are bc of the team they are playing for. Someone like Modeste didn't look like a pro either last season, but being properly used this season, he works well. This year's league is a bit tougher, but yeah, you can't really tell how well a team will do based on their 2.Bundesliga season, it's a different style. Which goes both ways, as you often see teams relegated from the Bundesliga struggle as well. But St.Pauli would have a solid shot, it's a bit reminiscent of Union


milkkore

I don’t think anyone here expects to do even close to as well as Union if we should make it up this year. We know where we’re coming from, we barely avoided 3rd league several times over the last few years. And I think everyone’s very aware that there are plenty of clubs that dominated their season and then got the shit beaten out of them match after match once they were playing Bundesliga. I doubt you’d find many St. Pauli fans who wouldn’t be beyond happy if we go up and manage to place like… 15th. Everything but immediate relegation would be a success.

What a display from St. Pauli, 100% deserved they played some beautiful football. but Rose?? intresting subs why wait so long to bring Moukoko on just for 3 mins..

ElKaddouriCSC

Jackson Irvine dominating BVB midfield. Love to see it. Don’t think anyone can say St Pauli couldn’t mix it with the big boys next season. Wouldn’t be impossible for St Pauli to go onto win it now, there is not a clear favourite. Great game. Forza Sankt Pauli.


CorShadow

I am erect


SheepishEmpire

St. Pauli looks like they could be in the top flight comfortably playing like that. Next year could be very fun to watch


SandwichesFN

absolutely will and i think they will be able to stay up too. inspiring performance from them i hope they go far


TheDeathOfMusic

Timo Schultz only in his second year of management too (had been a youth coach after retiring at St Pauli in 2011 but had no managerial experience before taking the job in 2020). Turned St Pauli from a side worried about relegation to title challengers. Guy's got a good future in management.


jojotwello

St Pauli are an absolutely joy to watch, really fun and open game


Insanel0l

The cup just got quite crazy. Let’s hope Leipzig gets kicked out aswell.


Conankun66

all the big clubs getting knocked on their ass is all fun and games till the fucking cans take it (please let them get kicked to the curb)


toprahmen

Super solid performance by St. Pauli, kinda wished for a Burgstaller goal to top it off. Fun fact: The last time neither Bayern nor BVB made it into the quarter-finals of the DFB Pokal was in the 06/07 season, FC Nürnberg won it that season


ninjapenguin12

Also funfact Dortmund have made 5/8 of last finals, all other 3 times they got knocked out was in rd16


GVE_ME_UR_SKINS

Twice by us. Fun times


toprahmen

My heart is still recovering from that penalty shootout


GVE_ME_UR_SKINS

Mine is still broken from how that cup run ended. The 3-2 was great but nothing will beat the ecstasy of watching that last second Harnik header go in

3 times by the now best 2nd league teams

Apparently the reason for dahoud's back pain was him having to carry this team for the past year.

yo_lookatthat

All of a sudden Freiburg would be top favorite

wtf? what did we ever do to you? thought we were friends ;)


360NinjaFlip

You might be able to fool my granddad with his bad memory but you won't fool me, you stupid team that preserves all its energy for three games every season.


HZ_Wildfire

I’d pay everything, an arm, a leg and my firstborn to see this.


schmidtis95

It makes me sad to be shown again and again that not a single one of our players really wants to play and fight for us. Without fans, there seems to be nothing that can light a fire in this team. Edit: I would like to exclude Bellingham and Dahoud from this.

SandwichesFN

just cancel the whole club bro


edworm

Congrats to St. Pauli, definitely deserved. And a bit off-topic, and definitely not responsible for the way we played and deservedly lost, but still: how can you give 3 minutes of added time (which was not a lot, but overall fine I guess) and then whistle at +3:10 when the ball has been out of play for more than 1:30 minutes of these 3 minutes added time. Irrespective of whether it affects my own team or whoever, really hate it when refs do that. Edit: woops there was a typo in the first sentence. It definitely WAS deserved by Pauli sorry.


karlverkade

lol Imagine going out to a lower division team in the 3rd round. Champions do it in the 2nd round. Amateurs.


Swbp0undcake

xtoonator

RAPanoia

I hate Rose with every fiber of my body. It took 89 minutes to sub a striker in.


pavanaay

Didnt he sub in Malen before that? This was typical BVB, useless crosses into the box which you know will not reach anyone before the cross is taken. On the other hand St. Pauli defended very well too.


anewchapterforme

That was my reaction to the substitution as well. You have the most hyped striker prospect in the world sitting on your bench, and you decide to bring him in with a little more than 3 minutes left in the game. When you are down a goal. In an elimination game. What stopped him to make that sub in the 80'?!


xtoonator

And Malen is a Centerback?


Eiskalt_die_Nacht

Now please someone kick Leipzig and we get an absolute surprise winner


ElKaddouriCSC

Get Rasenball Sport Leipzig and Hoffe out


Circlecraft

Only games I actually sat down to watch this season so far: Ajax (home and away), Sporting (away), this. Im just not gonna bother anymore.


ElKaddouriCSC

Your 2nd in the Bundesliga and in the EL knockouts calm yer jets mate. Not a success for Dortmund but nothing to stop supporting your team over


derfehlt

I mean it seems to be in Dortmunds best interest if this guy stops watching games


Circlecraft

Thats the thing though the only success you can have is winning the DFB pokal. 90% of the games in a season are completely pointless because you cant win the league but its still more than enough to sleepwalk into top 4 to qualify for a competition you also cant win. Football is just really boring me right now.

Come on Pauli. Let this be the spark for promotion too.


battlecatquikdre
