Away misery over: Glatzel lets HSV celebrate – 5-goal spectacle between FCM and F95

Niederlechner sees red

The coach Tim Walter and Hamburger SV celebrated a happy 2-0 (0-0) win against 1. FC Nürnberg at the end of the first half of the 2nd Bundesliga. HSV won on Saturday after six winless away games thanks to two late goals against an FCN that failed to finish and was unsuccessful on several occasions. When his team scored two goals, Walter threw his arms up and cheered loudly on the sidelines.

Goal scorer Robert Glatzel scored in front of 41,276 fans in the 80th minute for HSV, who are entering the short winter break in third place in the table with 31 points. Substitute Jean-Luc Dompé increased the score deep in stoppage time (90+7). The FCN (24 points) missed a successful end to the year after a total of three hits on the post or crossbar.

After the start of the game was dominated by fan protests against the DFL’s investor deal, a wild game developed with numerous mistakes and plenty of scoring opportunities. In the biggest one, HSV striker Glatzel initially failed to hit the ball in the best position (19th). Shortly afterwards, Benjamin Goller ran alone with the ball towards the HSV goal, but was caught and stopped (20th). Johannes Geis missed a shot at the post to make it 1-0 for the “Club” (27th).

Against the extremely vulnerable HSV defensively, Nuremberg should have taken the lead after the break at the latest. Within a few seconds, Daichi Hayashi hit the crossbar and HSV defender William Mikelbrencis headed the rebound onto his own post (57′). On the other side, Geis blocked a shot from Glatzel in desperate need (66′). The attacker then used his third major final action to score the decisive goal.

3:2 after 0:2: Fortuna Düsseldorf turns game at 1. FC Magdeburg

Fortuna Düsseldorf turned around a game that had already been thought lost and won 3-2 (0-2) at 1. FC Magdeburg in the last game of the first half of the season. Herbert Bockhorn gave the hosts the lead after 17 minutes, and Xavier Amaechi increased the lead with his first goal of the season in front of 20,647 spectators after 37 minutes. Immediately after the restart, Vincent Vermeij scored the goal. Shinta Appelkamp (70th) used the following dominance to equalize, before Vermeij (75th) completely turned the game around.

While Fortuna stays on the heels of the league’s leading trio with the win, Magdeburg is stuck in the bottom third of the table. In the round of 16 of the DFB Cup, Magdeburg had already lost 1-2 against Düsseldorf in their own stadium despite being in the lead.

Hertha BSC only drew against bottom team VfL Osnabrück

Hertha BSC extended its streak to nine games without defeat, but missed the three points it had planned against bottom club VfL Osnabrück. Without their guarantor of success, Fabian Reese, who had a cold, the Berliners couldn’t get past a 0-0 draw. Hertha’s offensive man Florian Niederlechner (84th) was shown a red card for gross foul play.

After the draw in front of 43,650 fans in the Olympic Stadium, the Berliners still have relegation within sight and can tackle their direct return to the Bundesliga after the short Christmas break. After the 1-1 draw against St. Pauli, promoted Osnabrück again scored a point against a top team, but remains bottom of the table.
