No chance through the day

I hope you get an earworm from the headline. In any case, there are opponents who are simply better. You have to acknowledge that without envy. This time it was SV Henstedt-Ulzburg, who scored roughly twice as many points as the first women from FC St. Pauli last season. I would be surprised if today's opposing team didn't also play for promotion this season.

Yes, it's women's football season again in the Regionalliga Nord and the 1st women from FC St. Pauli have a very strong opening program. Today against SV Henstedt-Ulzburg, next week against Werder Bremen, then at Waldörfer SV – This start will not be easy...

In any case, SV HU was a bit too big today. The opponents showed better positional play almost at all times, were more confident on the ball and also physically superior. In addition, the Henstedt-Ulzburg women were often a lot faster mentally. It speaks for the 1st women's team from FC St. Pauli that they never gave up to score a goal.

However, SV HU's goalkeeper only had to save for the first time in the 80th minute: AnSo Greifenberg had shot from the edge of the penalty area. In the 87th the bell rang - Julia Pastorek was pretty much alone in the penalty area and was able to place a header into the far corner without any pressure. The goal for FC St. Pauli was important for morale, but no longer for the game. At that point, Henstedt-Ulzburg was already leading with 7 goals. And Tara Zimmermann between the posts and the post itself saved the St. Paulians from conceding even more goals.

As the saying goes: wipe your mouth and carry on. If you are bottom of the table after the first matchday, things can only go up...
