Post early, Grønbaek late: HSV win final warm-up in Toulouse! | OneFootball

HSV played their final friendly at FC Toulouse on Saturday evening and won 2–1 after a mixed performance.

The match at the sparsely attended Stadium Municipal was not even four minutes old when it produced its biggest highlight. Following a ball win by Martin Adeline, the Hanseatic side switched play quickly, Otto Stange drove to the edge of the box and curled the ball beautifully into the top right corner from the left half-space – 0:1.

After that, the home side became the more active team and came close to an equalizer in the 20th minute: Albert Sambi Lokonga cleared Yann Ghobo’s shot off the line for the already beaten Daniel Heuer Fernandes. At the other end, Nicolai Remberg missed the second goal by just a few centimeters with a header. In addition, a deflected cross from Bakery Jatta hit the post.

HSV fade but still have reason to celebrate

After the break, HSV were unable to build on their strong spell at the end of the first half. Toulouse gained more control of the game and made good use of the space that opened up. On the hour mark, a cross from Ilyas Azizi reached the completely unmarked Santiago Hidalgo, whose header flew into the right corner beyond the helpless Sander Tangvik – 1:1.

Not even 120 seconds later, it almost went in again behind the goalkeeper who had come on for Heuer Fernandes at half-time. Christ Tapé’s shot hit the inside of the post. The Rothosen offered hardly any attacking threat in response. However, their only notable attempt did in fact produce the winner. A poorly cleared delivery fell to the feet of substitute Albert Grønbaek, who finished precisely into the right corner from 14 meters – 1:2.

HSV lined up with:

Heuer Fernandes (46. Tangvik),-Bissi-Mouelle, Torunarigha, Nandja,-Jatta, Remberg, Lokonga (70. Nadir),-Adeline (70. Grønbaek), Stange (90+1. Ojo),-Daka (70. Philippe)

Goals: 0:1 Stange (4'), 1:1 Hidalgo (60'), 1:2 Grønbaek (90+1')
