On Friday, HSV coach Daniel Thioune had spoken of the fact that he “likes to stand in the wind” - this was how he wanted to dispel initial doubts about the performance of his team.

After a strong start to the season, it remained without a win for three games in a row.

On Sunday there was again headwind at 1. FC Heidenheim, the second defeat of the season also meant that HSV had to say goodbye to the championship lead.

The Elbe kickers had taken a 2-0 lead, but three goals from Christian Kühlwetter turned things around.

With the third goal in the 90th minute of the game, Kühlwetter took advantage of a blatant mistake by HSV keeper Sven Ulreich.

With the victory in the Franconian Derby at 1. FC Nürnberg (2: 3), pursuers SpVgg Fürth overtook them and are the new championship leaders by one point.

Holstein Kiel, which surprisingly won 3-0 at Hannover 96, also caught up.

Back to HSV: Sonny Kittel (16.) and Toni Leistner had scored for HSV, which was initially able to skillfully break away from the strong pressing of the Heidenheimers.

But before half-time, the Heidenheimers, who had won both duels against HSV last season and were just defeated by Werder Bremen in the relegation, equalized (28./44.).

The game was now largely open, shortly before the end, the otherwise inconspicuous Simon Terodde could have taken the Hamburg lead, but he fell into reserve and shot over the goal.

Shortly afterwards, when everything looked like a draw, Ulreich jumped the ball in the build-up game and Kühlwetter was there.

On the coming matchday, HSV can wipe out the notch in the northern derby against Hannover 96 on Saturday.

As on the previous matchday, Hamburg's second professional football club had lost its point game.

Against Osnabrück FC St. Pauli lost 1-0 at Millerntor and missed numerous top-class chances.

As seventeenth in the table, the Kiezkicker will travel to Eintracht Braunschweig next Saturday - and since the team is only one place better, we can already speak of an early relegation duel.
