Promotion favorite Hamburger SV made a mistake at newly promoted SV Elversberg and surprisingly suffered their first defeat of the season on matchday 6 of the 2nd Bundesliga. Coach Tim Walter’s team lost 1:2 (0:1) to the Saarland team on Saturday and thus lost their lead in the table.
Jannik Rochelt (9th) and Luca Schnellbacher (60th) scored goals for Elversberger’s first home win in the 2nd league. HSV shortened the gap in the 89th minute through Moritz Heyer and, as currently tied for second behind Fortuna Düsseldorf, could even slip out of the top trio on Sunday.
