Hamburger SV is one of the largest clubs in Germany. In the New sticker on T-Online you will find all the important messages about the “red pants”.
The Hamburger SV will soon appear with a special jersey. The special jersey is used in the second division away game against the 1st FC Nürnberg on April 5. The women will even wear the jersey against Borussia Mönchengladbach on March 31.
With the newly designed shirt, the HSV sets a sign of equality, diversity and empowerment with the child rights organization Plan International and its sleeve partner Helm AG. According to the club, eight girls between the ages of 11 and 15 have designed the jersey during a workshop for the World Girls Day in October 2024.
The proceeds from the sale of the jersey are to be used to promote girls and young women and go directly to the child rights organization. “This jersey is more than a piece of fabric – it tells stories and makes the dreams of the girls from Hamburg and the whole world visible, also on the square,” writes the club.
In front of the impressive record set of 57,000 spectators in the sold-out folk park stadium, the HSV women’s team lost the cup semi-final against Werder Bremen 1: 3 (0: 0, 1: 1) after extra time. The second division team delivered a gripping fight to the Bundesliga club from Bremen and played outnumbered from the 54th minute after a yellow-red card against Werder defender Saskia Matheis, but was in the 81st minute due to an unfortunate mistake by HSV goalkeeper Inga Schuldt.
HSV captain Sarah Stöckmann achieved the much-celebrated equalization in the 89th minute, who forced the extension. The Volksparkstadion trembled, but in the extension it was again the Bremen women who took the lead again through Sophie Weidau (117th). Verena again (120.+1) made everything clear. Despite the defeat, the HSV wrote history with the viewer record of 57,000 fans – so many people have never attended a women’s football game in German club football.
Coach Merlin Polzin goes with a good feeling in the season’s sprint of the 2nd Bundesliga. After the 3-0 in the test game against Phönix Lübeck, the leaders’ focus is on the final phase of the season. The HSV coach has a great strength with his team.
Because: In Robert Glatzel, Davie Selke, Ransford Königsdörffer and Otto Stange, the coach of the “Rothosen” for the final sprint is open to many options in attack. “This is definitely a great strength,” says Polzin. “I don’t want to be the defender who has worked on one of our strikers for 70 minutes and thinks that it will soon be done – and then the next one will come into play.”
Glatzel had recently given his comeback after about five months of injury. In the test game against fourth division Lübeck, he scored with a penalty.
On Sunday there is a historic moment in German women’s football in the Volksparkstadion: The DFB Cup semi-final between Hamburger SV and Werder Bremen will be held in front of 57,000 spectators-as many as never before in a club game in Germany.
The duel of the North Rivals has been sold out for weeks and surpasses the previous record from the cup final 2024 in Cologne by more than 12,000 fans. “The news actually went around the world. This is exactly what women’s football needs to take the next steps,” said HSV board member Eric Huwer, according to the “Süddeutscher Zeitung”.
