Led by three-packer Sandra Jessen, the 1. FC Köln footballers continue to flow in the Bundesliga.
Coach Britta Carlson’s team won 4-1 (2-0) against newly promoted Hamburger SV and is therefore unbeaten in five league games in a row. Meanwhile, HSV is slipping deeper and deeper into the table cellar and is in a relegation zone for the first time this season.
Jessen was the decisive player in Hamburg’s Volksparkstadion. The Icelander scored first with a header (10th) and after a counterattack (36th).
After the break, the hosts felt they had a chance to score points thanks to Christin Meyer’s goal (47th). But Adriana Achcinska (73′) made the decision for FC before Jessen finished off the game with her third goal (90’+2).
