HSV’s man of the moment: Königsdörffer finally breaks his duck! | OneFootball

Just a few weeks ago, Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer faced some harsh criticism. Now, HSV fans are celebrating him as the match-winner.

In the 3-2 victory against Union Berlin, the 24-year-old became the defining figure with a double and impressively continued his upward form curve.

Already in the 2-0 win in Heidenheim, the striker had scored and subsequently announced: “I would like to score more goals.” Against Union, he followed through on those words. In the 35th minute, he completed a counterattack with a calculated low shot. Shortly before the final whistle, in the 82nd minute, he left opponent Leopold Querfeld standing almost teasingly relaxed and scored freely into the far corner. In total, he took a whopping seven shots on goal. “I’m happy about it, it can continue like this,” Königsdörffer said afterwards on Sky.

The relief is also palpable within the team. “Ransi is now in the flow, as I said last week. Once he scores... He makes the two goals outstandingly,” explained Nicolai Remberg. Nicolás Capaldo added: “His goals will further boost his confidence. We know he has high quality.”

Coach Merlin Polzin explains his protégé's recent upswing as follows: “There is a noticeable difference between the 2nd league and the Bundesliga. I’m pleased that he is now rewarding himself for good and hard work. It is a result of the process.” And strike partner Robert Glatzel, who assisted the 1-0, emphasized: “He has developed tremendously and now he is the match-winner in the Bundesliga.”

Königsdörffer himself appeared humble and already looked ahead. “Our whole team is in the flow,” he rejoiced. “We just want to stay in the league.” If the Ghanaian international continues to score like this, the Rothosen are indeed on a good path in this regard.
