What was going on in Paderborn on Saturday? Madness! SC Paderborn took Holstein Kiel apart with 7:2. Interesting: Ex-Schalkers were involved in eight of these nine goals.

SC Paderborn has taken the lead in the 2nd Bundesliga – and with a real football firework. The SCP demolished Holstein Kiel 7:2.

It was also a historic success for the East Westphalians. Never before had Paderborn scored seven goals in a second-division home match. No wonder that the almost 10,000 spectators felt well entertained.

Keyword record: The fact that eight former FC Schalke 04 players are involved in nine goals in one competitive match should also be a record. That was namely the case in Paderborn.

One after the other: Robert Leipertz, an ex-Schalker, provided the assist for Paderborn’s 1:0 goal. In Kiel’s 1:1 equaliser, Steven Skrzybski, also a former Gelsenkirchener, was the player with the scorer’s point. On we go: SCP’s 4:1 was then a co-production of two former Königsblauer: Marvin Pieringer laid on, Felix Platte finished. Platte also scored the 5:1. Skrzybski then scored the goal that brought the score back to 2:5. Pieringer scored the 6:2 for Paderborn and Jonas Carls provided the assist for the 7:2 goal. In other words, eight of the nine goals were scored by former FC Schalke 04 professionals. Crazy!
