Fortuna Düsseldorf beats St. Pauli 3:0
Today I was in Düsseldorf's new stadium LTU Arena to watch a soccer match between Fortuna Düsseldorf and FC St. Pauli. The two clubs are in the amateur league Regionallige Nord. For a game like this the arena hosted some extraordinary 20,800 visitors. The atmosphere was really good as both St. Pauli and Fortuna fans where giving their best. The game itself was not too bad and the three goals where really worth watching. But some 20-30 minutes it was boring as hell.
Their victory may have saved Fortuna another year in the Regionallige Nord. Fortuna's fans were singing "Oh wie ist das schön" for a long long time. For FC St. Pauli the dream to make it back into the second league has died. We'll have to see what the future brings for both clubs...
