🤯 Is that already downing tools? HSV star gifts VfL the opener | OneFootball

Will HSV worsen Wolfsburg’s crisis today? At the moment, it doesn’t look like it at all. On the contrary: After just a quarter of an hour, the team from Lower Saxony takes the lead far too easily, creating a bad mood in the Volksparkstadion.

One player in particular is in the spotlight: Hamburg’s great defensive talent Luka Vušković. Wolfsburg combines purposefully going forward, Eriksen sends Daghim down the right wing.

And then he has an easy job: with a quick feint, he leaves the HSV loanee from Tottenham standing far too easily, who barely reacts at all, and finishes with his left – the ball lands in the net. 

Many had already seen Hamburg as having arrived in the Bundesliga – but this goal, at least for now, proves the opposite. Because this defensive performance is more reminiscent of the leaky backline from their second division days.

Shortly before halftime, things get even worse: Königsdörffer misses a penalty after a foul on Lokonga in the box. Grabara in the Wolfsburg goal is able to save the not-so-well-taken spot kick and keep a clean sheet for his team. 

At least the Hanseatic side still has an entire half to fight their way back into this game and turn the result around.
