Hamburg secure first Bundesliga victory of the season in basement clash | OneFootball

A pivotal game at the bottom of the table unfolded on Saturday at the Volksparkstadion, where Hamburger SV secured a much-needed 2-1 victory over 1. FC Heidenheim.

The win marked HSV’s first Bundesliga triumph since their long-awaited return to the top flight.

Lukas Vuskovic broke the deadlock shortly before halftime, smashing the ball into the net to score the club’s first league goal of the campaign.

Midway through the second half, Rayan Philippe doubled the advantage, finishing coolly after Fabio Vieira’s precise cut-back across the box.

Heidenheim pulled one back late on through Adam Kölle, but HSV held on to secure three important points.

With the result, HSV move onto four points and climb to 14th place ahead of the weekend’s remaining fixtures.

Heidenheim, meanwhile, remain bottom of the table, still searching for their first point of the season.
