2nd Bundesliga: Hamburger SV separates from coach Tim Walter. Conceding eight goals in the last two home games, the competition from Kiel took second place in the table on Sunday.

HSV suffered its third home defeat in a row at the hands of Hannover on Friday. The six-time German champions have already failed five times in their attempt to get promoted back to the first league. The 48-year-old has to leave the third-place team in the 2nd Bundesliga after a good two and a half years.
