2023-06-02 00:40:00

UPDATE, June 1, 10:45 p.m.: Stuttgart shines – HSV now needs a miracle

In the first leg of the relegation, VfB Stuttgart took a huge step towards staying up and clearly beat Hamburger SV 3-0! As has been the case several times this season, the guests presented themselves in a catastrophic defensive condition and are still well served with the three goals they conceded.

In addition to goals from Mavropanos, Vagnoman and Guirassy, ​​the Swabians had great chances for three or four more goals. Above all, Guirassy missed a penalty and another top chance. In addition, HSV keeper Heuer Fernandes made several brilliant saves that there is at least a spark of hope for the second division.

Hamburg will also have to do without Anssi Suhonen in the second leg, who was sent off today. Offensively, the red trousers did quite well at times, but there were few compelling chances. The second leg takes place next Monday at 8:45 p.m. in Hamburger Volkspark. Bye from Stuttgart and see you next time!

UPDATE, June 1, 9:35 p.m.: VfB Stuttgart leads at half-time – but leaves a lot behind

VfB Stuttgart leads 1-0 at half-time in the relegation first leg against Hamburger SV! You only have to say it was 1-0, because the Bundesliga team was clearly the superior team and missed a number of good opportunities against the Hanseatic League, who had been completely overwhelmed defensively for a long time.

After Mavropanos headed the lead in the first minute, Serhou Guirassy in particular missed two huge chances. First, the Frenchman appeared alone in front of Heuer Fernandes and then only played the ball harmlessly back to him, then he also failed with a weak penalty shot by the keeper of the guests.

The agile Führich had another big chance, which was also destroyed by the extremely strong Heuer Fernandes. Only in the last ten minutes did the guests appear offensively and create a few good moments. The only real chance came from Dompé, who narrowly missed the box from long range. Let’s continue with the second round!

UPDATE, June 1, 7:50 p.m.: The starting line-ups of Stuttgart and Hamburg in the relegation

Stuttgart: Muller – Mavropanos, Anton, Ito – Vagnoman, Karazor, Endo, Sosa, Millot, Führich – Guirassy

Hamburg: Heuer Fernandes – Heyer, David, Schonlau, Muheim – Meffert, Reis, Kittel – Jatta, Glatzel, Dompe

It is a trauma that Hamburger SV is suffering for the fifth time. The direct promotion to the Bundesliga does not want to succeed despite the best starting positions.

On the 34th matchday of the 2022/23 season, the Rothosen took the drama to the extreme. HSV won their game 1-0 in Sandhausen and, knowing that their direct competitor Heidenheim was trailing Jahn Regensburg at the time of the final whistle, the HSV fans stormed the pitch and celebrated their team.

Only to find out that Heidenheimer scored two more goals in the 15-minute added time from Regensburg and thus snatched the promotion they thought was safe from HSV.

Stuttgart was only missing a goal

On the other side is VfB Stuttgart. It didn’t slip quite as dramatically, but just as narrowly in the relegation games. With VfL Bochum beating Bayer Leverkusen and FC Schalke 04 losing at RB Leipzig, VfB had to win their game against Hoffenheim to finish 15th.

After a goalless first half, the Swabians fell behind, but were able to compensate for this quite quickly. Despite furious attempts to attack, the score remained 1-1. If Sebastian Hoeneß’ team had still managed to score, FC Augsburg would have slipped into relegation.

It is the fourth appearance in the Bundesliga playoffs for Hamburger SV, twice as a Bundesliga and second division team. In 2014, the Hamburg team also defeated SpVgg Greuther Fürth 0-0 and 1-1 thanks to the away goals rule.
