Since their first year in the 2. Bundesliga (2018), Hamburger SV have been in 1st place after the first half of the season, then 2nd place and then 1st place again. And despite these places, they have not yet managed to get promoted again. At some point, their performance plummeted. We will see if it will happen with St. Pauli or Darmstadt too.
It is difficult to see for the football fan that HSV has fallen so far. In the years that van Der Vaart still played here, they always played at the top of the Bundesliga. A club with this history should win the championship here in this competition. Even though the teams have also become stronger across the width. Could it have been financial mismanagement or other sponsor problems?
