The football second division club Hamburger SV threatens to lose the lead. The team of coach Merlin Polzin did not get out of 0-0 against SV Elversberg. In front of 56,328 spectators in the Volksparkstadion, the hosts were the game -determining team over long distances, but the Hanseates were negligent with their numerous chances. The 1. FC Köln (47 points) now has the chance on Saturday to push the Hamburger (49) from the top again with a victory in the table third SC Paderborn (45).
Selke in the starting eleven – Glatzel with home comeback
HSV coach Polzin had recently appointed the recently blocked attacker Davie Selke to the starting eleven – and ordered the Ransford Königsdörffer, which was outstanding in Magdeburg, to the bank. After a free kick by Miro Muheim (19th), Selke almost achieved the guidance of the hosts, but Elversberg keeper Nicolas Kristof parried brilliantly.
The HSV continued the tone against the guests who had traveled as a table, but again Selke (31st) and Ludovit Reis (33.). Afterwards, HSV goalkeeper Daniel Heuer Fernandes was in the spotlight: he prevented an own goal of William Mikelbrencis (40th) and saved Maurice Neubauer (41.).
After the change of sides, the HSV continued pressure – but the hosts simply did not hit despite the best chances. With counterattacks, the guests from Saarland remained dangerous, Lukas Petkov (61.) failed on the strong this year Fernandes. Substitute Marco Richter (78th) still hit the crossbar for the Hamburgers. A little later Robert Glatzel gave his home comeback after a long injury break, and he was briefly back on the pitch in Magdeburg.
