The liberating victory against Heidenheim brings relief to the HSV camp. A prominent TV expert also knows how important this win was.
A total of 2,688 days had to pass before the fans of Hamburger SV could celebrate such a day: With the 2:1 win against 1. FC Heidenheim, a Bundesliga triple could finally be celebrated in Volkspark again. The word "chest opener" was often read afterwards. And TV expert Dietmar Hamann also sees this premiere as a possible signal for a sporting turnaround.
"The first victory, the first triple is always incredibly important. Especially for a promoted team," explained the former national player on Sky. After three goalless matches at the start, HSV had fought hard for this moment. The runner-up world champion spoke of a "liberating blow" that could give the team a boost both in terms of sports and psychology.
Hamann particularly emphasized that HSV was not only combative, but also convincing in phases of play. Rayan Philippe and Fabio Vieira were especially noticeable. "They did very, very well at times," praised the 52-year-old. Although the team could have created more calm with a third goal earlier, Hamann recognized clear progress overall.
But the victory was most important from a psychological point of view. "They will all sleep better in Hamburg and go to training with a different spirit," Hamann predicted. This exact looseness could now be decisive in order to fully arrive in the Bundesliga in the coming weeks.
Because already next Sunday (28.09, 7.30 pm) the next test awaits with the away game at 1. FC Union Berlin. However, the Irons will compete without former HSV coach Steffen Baumgart, who is suspended after being sent off against Eintracht Frankfurt.
