Norwich City 1 St. Pauli 3
Last year St. Pauli came for a rare visit to the United Kingdom when they visited Dunfermline and we made the effort to go up there and cheer on the lads in brown. Therefore, it was a bit of s surprise that they were back so soon and this time we didn't have to trek across country but go relatively just down the road to Norwich.
Meet ups with the St. Pauli crew are always and adventure and a good laugh, so it was great that it was also topped off by a dominant performance. There was some early pressure from Norwich, but they were pretty much overwhelmed by St. Pauli. Captain Jackson Irvine put the visitors ahead on 18n minutes when he headed home from a corner. 10 minutes later it was 2-0, as a defensive error allowed Gilavogui to double the lead and before halftime the damage was complete when Eggestein added a third.
Both teams made a lot of changes at halftime and St. Pauli were found to be lacking when they let Rowe in to make it 3-1 at the start of the half. However, there were to be no further goals and a question has to be asked as to why Adam Idah came on at all. He's desperate to leave the Canaries for Celtic and could be barely bothered to jog after the ball when he came on.
Anyway, a superb day out, but way too many beers were downed!
