Soccer-Guerrero brace gives Hamburg SV 2-1 win over Schalke

BERLIN, March 22 - Peruvian Paolo Guerrero scored
twice in the second half to give visitors Hamburg SV a 2-1 win
over Schalke 04 on Sunday which put them within a point of
leaders Hertha Berlin.

Guerrero scored in the 71st minute and grabbed his second
four minutes later with a close-range effort from a low cross by
Marcell Jansen. Jefferson Farfan pulled one back in the 80th for
the hosts.

Hamburg join Bayern Munich and Wolfsburg on 48 points with
Hertha Berlin still leading on 49 points despite losing 2-0 to
Stuttgart on Saturday.

Bayern beat bottom-of-the-table Karlsruhe 1-0 on Saturday,
while Wolfsburg scored their seventh consecutive win, a 3-0
victory against Arminia Bielefeld.
