Bayern wins late against St. Pauli: negative record for Hamburg!
In an exciting encounter in the Bundesliga, FC Bayern Munich retained the upper hand over FC St. Pauli on December 1, 2025. With a final score of 3-1 (1-1), Bayern consolidated their role as the undisputed league leaders, while St. Pauli suffered their ninth defeat in a row with this defeat - a sad club record.
The game started anything but optimally for the Munich team: Andreas Hountondji surprisingly gave St. Pauli a 1-0 lead in the fifth minute. Bayern struggled to overcome the guests' compact defense in the first half. Despite two shots on the post by Lennart Karl and Tom Bischof, the game could have been very different in the first half, but Raphaël Guerreiro's equalizer in the 44th minute gave Bayern new hope.
Tension until the final minute
The second half began after a change in Bayern's line-up, with coach Vincent Kompany bringing on Michael Olise for Konrad Laimer at half-time. Nevertheless, Bayern initially remained at the limit. It wasn't until stoppage time that the pressure was massively increased again. In the 90th minute, Luis Díaz made it 2-1 for Munich after a cross from Joshua Kimmich. Just three minutes later, Nicolas Jackson finished things off with another goal that increased the score to 3-1.
St. Pauli put in a strong defensive performance throughout the game, but Bayern's late goals highlighted the club's difficulties in securing an away point again this year. St. Pauli coach Alexander Blessin understandably expressed disappointment at the late goals conceded, which further complicated the already tense season.
Statistical insights
Statistically speaking, Bayern were clearly the dominant team, even though it took a long time to exploit their chances. The Munich team achieved an xGoals number of 1.93 compared to St. Pauli's modest 0.56. In the game, Luis Díaz showed his outstanding sprint with a speed of 33.38 km/h and was also the most pressured, which underlined his importance in the game. Interestingly, Hountondji's first goal was the biggest surprise of the game with just 9 percent probability.
Before kick-off, Kingsley Coman, a former Bayern player who recently moved to Al-Nassr FC, was honored. The Munich team is now preparing for the next important game in the DFB Cup against Union Berlin, while St. Pauli will face Borussia Mönchengladbach on Tuesday.
The coming weeks will be crucial for both teams, especially for St. Pauli, who now urgently need points to avoid the looming relegation zone. Wherever this leads – it will always be exciting in the Bundesliga!
