Ghana defender Patric Pfeiffer has been named in Sofascore's Bundesliga 2 team of the week.

The 23-year-old provided an assist and put up an impressive performance for Darmstadt.

Darmstadt defeated Karlsruher SC 2-1 in the German Bundesliga 2 at the Merck-Stadion am Böllenfalltor.

Pfeiffer started for his team on Friday when the side hosted the Round 28 opponent of the German lower-tier league.

Just 11 minutes into the first half, Karlsruher SC took the lead when the team scored through Fabian Schleusener.

Pegged behind, Darmstadt regrouped and began to take control of the match.

After playing well for a while, the hosts equalised in the 26^th minute as Braydon Manu found the back of the net.

That goal inspired Darmstadt to play more confidently as the team netted a second goal in the second half thanks to a strike from Philip Tietz assisted by Patric Pfeiffer to seal a 2-1 win.

Patric Pfeiffer now has four goals and one assist this season in the German Bundesliga 2.
