Darmstadt 98 will return to the Bundesliga after a 33-year absence after a 1-0 win over St Pauli secured a second-place finish in the second division following the final round of matches yesterday. The lilies, who were only promoted to the second tier last year, finished runners-up, five points behind Ingolstadt, who had already secured their return to the Bundesliga. Third-placed Karlsruhe, a point behind on 58, will go into a promotion/relegation play-off with Hamburg SV, who finished 16th in the Bundesliga. Freiburg and Paderborn were relegated to the second division on Saturday.
