After the first goal from Anthony Ujah in the 65th minute the Hamburger came to swimming, but the passionate final act of Bremer was not rewarded. So it looks more and more after that, they have this season in the relegation.

Panic therefore terrible reigns at Werder. Trainer Skripnik sit further in the saddle, said Marco Bode, head of the supervisory board.

She had always given him problems this season, he lost form and confidence. Recently the Storm competitors Artjoms Rudnevs and Sven Schipplock had passed on Lasogga. Against Bremen succeeded the resurrection of the striker.

leading man number two had Drobny, who represented the rotgesperrten goalkeeper Rene Adler and an outstanding game made, not only because of the held penalty miss against Pizarro in the 56th minute. Coach Labbadia saw himself once again in the thesis confirmed that Hamburg have a substitute in goal, to always be relied upon. After the game got Drobny special applause from the spectators in Volksparkstadion.

In the euphoria Hamburger wanted despite the almost accomplished class receipt erupt not. “Anyone who thinks that it’s all over, is misplaced,” warned midfielder Lewis Holtby. The HSV has too many dramas experienced in recent years in order to be sure of his.
