The right winger Matthias Scherz played for the amateur club Rot-Weiß Scheeßel until 1994. Then, at the age of 22, he joined FC St. Pauli. His first two years in Hamburg he was member of their amateur team. During the 1996/1997 season he reached his goal to play in a first squad in the 1. Bundesliga. After the club relegated to 2.

In 1999, he went to the second league club 1. FC Köln where he also had a place in the first team. In the 2002/2003 season he scored 18 times - three times more than usual in his previous seasons and helped his club to gain promotion to the first league.
The following season he could not repeat his previous seasons performance, and 1. FC Köln was again relegated. In the 2003/2004 season, he netted 11 goals, second on the team to Lukas Podolski, in a season that saw FC Köln once again gain promotion.
