For the new Hamburg coach, Hannes Wolf, it was the third competitive match, the third victory with his new club. The Cologne, in which the ÖFB player Louis Schaub was replaced in the 87th minute, was however caught in a small income crisis. FC have taken just two points in the last four games and are now in third place.
HSV has gained weight right from the start. But it is only after a quarter of an hour that it is the first time at the door of Cologne. Narey failed after Douglas Santos' solid preparation for FC Timo Horn goalkeeper.
Arp hits the outside post
Seconds later, Cologne was lucky, while referee Christian Dingert was clearly threatened in the penalty box by Rafael Czichos after a shot by Narey was not punished. The best chance before the break was the talent Arp (28 '), who hit the outside post at 20 yards. Among the guests, however, was nothing to see.
Even after the change, the hosts set the tone, without really having a chance to score. It is only slowly that Cologne has intensified its efforts. Marco Höger's shot (58) after the first corner of the Rhinelander allowed Narey to stay on the score.
"The best team won"
The game became more open and the goal scenes accumulated. Douglas Santos (67) and his replacement Hee-Chan Hwang (74) failed for the CF goalkeeper, while Serhou Guirbady (70) threatened the goal of HSV. But then came the appearance of Lasogga, which was dusted off by a shot from Douglas Santos.
"The match was very intense and I think that in the end, the best team won," said Matchwinner Lasogga during a televised interview. "We are now at the top and we want to defend it and do everything in our power to be there before the 34th day," said the striker.
The Cologne coach, Markus Anfang, left Hamburg disappointed. "We had no peace in our game, we made a lot of mistakes," said the 44-year-old. However, he does not want to attach too much importance to the negative series: "It's also part of it, we'll get by, I'm sure."
