HSV celebrate big win over Bayern: "We can be very, very proud" | OneFootball

HSV wrested a surprising point from FC Bayern after a passionate fight. Afterwards, the team showed pride.

Pride in a performance that went far beyond a normal draw and came against one of the best teams in Europe.

“That was a really strong team performance. Everyone gave it their all,” said Miro Muheim after the final whistle, summarizing what had been evident over 99 intense minutes. HSV not only faced the record champions with great unity but also repeatedly sought to move forward. “We set accents both defensively and offensively. That's why we can be very, very proud of the performance,” Muheim continued.

Despite the individual quality of the Munich team, the promoted side was neither intimidated nor pushed purely into defense. Instead, HSV held their ground both physically and tactically and always found answers even after setbacks. Sambi Lokonga highlighted this: “Today we showed character against a very good team. Tactically, mentally, and physically, it was a very good performance.”

HSV stars satisfied: “Didn’t have much to lose”

The fact that HSV did not let the temporary setback throw them off course fit the overall picture of a performance where courage in their own play was always maintained. Time and again, the North Germans sought their salvation in offense and rewarded themselves through Luka Vuskovic with the deserved equalizer.

Daniel Elfadli assessed the performance as follows: “We didn’t have much to lose. This is one of the best teams in Europe. I think we did very well.”

In the end, there was a point that felt like a small victory for Hamburg – not so much because of the tight table situation in the relegation battle, but because of the manner of their performance. For on Saturday evening, HSV showed that they can also stand up to the very best. Or, as Muheim put it: “We can be very, very proud of the performance.”
