MONCHENGLADBACH, Germany (AP) — Kevin Stöger’s first goal of the season helped Borussia Mönchengladbach beat St. Pauli 2-0 and boost hopes of avoiding Bundesliga relegation on Friday.
Stöger was making his 200th Bundesliga appearance and struck a superb 25-meter free kick over the St. Pauli wall approaching halftime.
Franck Honorat added the second in the second half when he side-footed home a low left-foot drive.
It was a comfortable win for the 12th-placed Gladbach and lifted it four points clear of a packed relegation zone.
Only five points separate Hamburg in 10th place and St. Pauli, which is third from bottom in the last of the relegation places.
