In the end there was a 1-0 (0-0) win at 1. FC Heidenheim in the 2nd round of the DFB Cup and thus reaching the next round. It was ultimately a deserved, if hard-fought and somewhat fortunate success for coach Merlin Polzin’s team. Shortly before the end of the game, Robert Glatzel scored the goal of the evening (83rd) with a controversial penalty. The Heidenheimers, who had to play outnumbered for more than half, had little more to counter HSV than commitment and passion. Both teams started the game with a lot of energy. It was the people of Hamburg who were able to transform this dynamic into dangerous scenes. After just three minutes, the Hanseatic League had their first good chance to score. Miro Muheim, served brilliantly by Rayan Philippe, shot from twelve meters, but Heidenheim’s Omar Traoré was lying on the grass and in his way. The defender deflected the shot into a corner. And just four minutes later, after a serious defensive mistake by Patrick Mainka, who missed the ball, Ransford Königsdörffer ran alone from the halfway line towards the Heidenheim goal. However, the HSV attacker failed from ten meters to FCH goalkeeper Diant Ramaj. The people of Hamburg seemed much more organized, more self-confident and more determined. The hosts, on the other hand, had a lot of trouble getting a little line into their game. As a result, the game remained intense, hard-fought, stubborn, but became noticeably flat because neither team was able to get another chance to score. The Heidenheimers in particular managed next to nothing on offense. HSV goalkeeper Daniel Peretz, who can play for regular goalkeeper Daniel Heuer Fernandes in the cup, had a calm first half. There was to be excitement on the other side shortly before the half-time whistle. After a counterattack via Königsdörffer, FCH defender Tim Siersleben brought the attacker down illegally. Referee Benjamin Brand recognized the emergency brake and showed Heidenheimer the red card (44th). The Hamburg team tried to exploit their majority in the second half by letting the ball and the opponent run. But that didn’t work out the way it was supposed to. The Heidenheimers stood deep in their own half and formed a compact defensive block – which made life difficult for HSV. For the Schmidt team, it was all about survival – and occasional counterattacks, one of which even brought danger. After a cross from Niklas Dorsch from the right side, Marvin Pieringer got a header from ten meters (78th), which narrowly missed the HSV goal. Almost in return, the Hamburg team, who had been acting unimaginatively for a long time, were awarded a questionable penalty by referee Brand. After a slight touch from Julian Niehues on the edge of the penalty area, Fabio Vieira suddenly went down. A foul for Brand. VAR does not yet exist in the second round of the DFB Cup. HSV attacker Glatzel converted for a 1-0 lead. The Heidenheimers tried everything again in the last few minutes to score the equalizer. But they failed against stumbling Hamburgers due to their inaccuracy in finishing. A few moments before the end, FCH coach Frank Schmidt was shown a yellow-red card for complaining and had to leave the interior of the stadium.
