Great joy in Leipzig: The women of HSV have secured their first victory since being promoted to the Bundesliga against RB Leipzig. The 1-0 winning goal was scored by youngster Lotta Wrede.

The breakthrough has happened! On the fourth matchday, the HSV women achieved their first win of the season – and it was against RB Leipzig and former Hamburger Lisa Baum. In the 1-0 (0-0) victory, the just 17-year-old Lotta Wrede became the match-winner and created a historic moment.

In a hard-fought match, spectators had to wait a long time for notable highlights. Both teams neutralized each other, and goal opportunities were scarce. But in the 77th minute, the moment came for the HSV talent: Wrede skillfully controlled a long cross from Romina Lahr and capitalized on a positioning error by her opponent. She then outmaneuvered another Leipzig player and finished coldly. The goal impressively indicated the enormous potential of the German junior national player.

HSV holds onto narrow lead

The newly promoted team passionately defended the narrow lead but had to endure a scare. In injury time, Leipzig's Marleen Schimmer hit the crossbar with a free kick. However, the luck of the diligent was on the side of the Hamburg women that evening.

For coach Liése Brancão's team, it is the first Bundesliga victory in 13 years and an important breakthrough after three winless games. Already at the start, the HSV women made a statement with a 3-3 draw against runners-up VfL Wolfsburg, and now, after four matches, they stand at a more than respectable five points.

That it was a teenager who secured the debut victory fits the picture: Lotta Wrede embodies the spirit of optimism at the Bundesliga newcomer like no other and crowned her strong season start brilliantly. In just three days (September 28), the Hanseatic women aim to achieve another success in the DFB-Pokal against 1. FC Magdeburg.
