Hamburg loses its way to the Bundesliga again

VfB Stuttgart won the promotion/relegation playoff double in the Bundesliga.

The team coached by Sebastian Hoeness also won the second leg of the play-off at the Volksparkstadion.

The home team started the game strongly and opened the scoring in the 6th minute. Sonny Kittel made it 1-0 with a superb strike and Hamburg were hoping for a comeback.

Girassi restored the tie (min. 17), but his success was canceled out for offside in the build-up phase.

In the second half, Enzo Miho from a pass from Girassi finally equalized the score (min. 48), and in the 64th minute, the same Miho put Stuttgart ahead.

The final result was established by Silas in the 7th minute of overtime.

Final score 2-1 and Stuttgart escape, winning 3-1 on aggregate.
