hsv won the hamburg city derby today with a 1-0 victory against st. pauli. however, as düsseldorf also beat nürnberg 3-1 at home in the second friday match, the gap to third place in the table remains at 4 points.
with 2 games left to play and the worse goal difference, it will take a miracle for hamburger sv to reach the relegation matches...

The difference in points between HSV and Fortuna Düsseldorf in third place remains the same, namely 4 points. HSV now have just two games left of the season, and a poorer goal difference does not favor their chances of reaching the relegation zone. Their prospects looked so bleak, it would be a miracle for HSV to achieve that goal.

However, HSV's journey this season has shown persistence and struggle despite facing insurmountable obstacles. They will continue to press, giving their best effort even though victory seems out of reach given the circumstances towards the end of the season. A sliver of hope still remains, football is known for its unpredictability, there may be a surprise waiting in the remaining games.

Even so, HSV will be on the brink of collapse, they will have to summon strength from within to deliver a stunning performance as they fight to survive in their last chance for redemption.

That was a great game from Hamburger SV. If they had played more games like they did against St. Pauli, they would not be at place 4. In that game, Hamburger SV had scored 3 goals, but 2 were denied. Nevertheless, they did not give up and only the last goal was given. That was great morale from the team. 4 points behind place 3 iss probably too much. And even if they would make it, they will still have to play 2 relegation matches.

yes yes. the hamburger team is really very mysterious. the hamburger sv wins against st. pauli and loses in osnabrück and only gets one point in magdeburn .
but it's like almost every year now . the hsv finishes the season in 3rd or 4th place . and when the relegation matches come hamburg voluntarily stays in the 2.bundesliga .
and it won't be any easier for hamburger sv next year . if cologne also plays in the 2nd bundesliga next season it will be even harder to get promoted again .
cologne, darmstadt, schalke 04, hannover 96, hertha bsc berlin and some more have the chance to get promoted to the first bundesliga .
i'm sure ..... next season will also be very exciting again  and the hsv on place 3 oder 4 or ??

The top of the table now looks dangerously close again.
Sure Kiel and Pauli seem to still have a good position having some more points than 3rd place, but still, it looked much better 2-3 weeks back.
If Kiel wins in Wiesbaden today though they can pretty much cool the champagne with a 5 point advantage. They haven't won yet though, as last week has shown (losing against Kaiserslautern), any small mistake can be punished fast.

At the bottom of the table I am glad to see that Kaiserlautern now had back to back impressive wins. If Wiesbaden loses against Kiel they are in a great position to stay in the 2nd Bundesliga and enjoy the cup final.

And isn't it amusing to see how Hamburg is close to ruining their last chance once again? This is this one game that they need to win to at least preserve a theoretic chance for promotion. But they are of course behind, but then again they wouldn't have lost it today. I checked the table and they win less than 50% of the games. They have often reached something around 60 points or more. That's the least for a club with so much potential, but they have instead developed meme potential.

congratulations to the hamburger sv
the hsv made it . and completely deserved it . the team may also travel to Paderborn and elversberg next season .
the hsv lost the game in Paderborn with 1:0 . once again an extremely embarrassing performance of the hamburger sv .

Paderborn :Hamburger SV 1:0
Magdeburg : Fürth 0:0

should fc köln also be relegated from the 1st bundesliga (which looks very likely), the 2nd bundesliga will be more attractive next season than ever before... with numerous supposedly 'big' clubs that can also boast various titles in their history. i like that

[Soonandwaite]

congratulations to kiel
it's been official for 10 minutes now. holstein kiel are promoted to the 1st bundesliga for the first time. the match between holstein kiel and fortuna düsseldorf ended in a 1:1 draw.
the german football champion of 1912 from kiel can celebrate tonight with the fans at home . honestly ! the team from kiel deserved the victory 100% !

Hmmm: 1.FC Köln : Union Berlin 3:2  > > Köln still has the chance to stay in the first bundesliga

It's a bout time to see another first timer in the Bundesliga, great season from Kiel and well deserved!!!
Hopefully they can hold their own next season and get some surprise wins against big teams that underestimate them.
It will be tough to stay in but with a bit of luck and great games they can manage this hopefully.

Today there is also a deciding game for relegation since Braunschweig (15th) is facing Wehen Wiesbaden (16th). If Braunschweig can win this it's done and they are salved, together with Kaiserslautern.
If they draw there are still some ways for Kaiserslautern to fall to the 16th position and if Wiesbaden wins it's all wide open going into the last game day.
So I hope Braunschweig wins and Kaiserslautern can celebrate and focus on the cup final which is coming soon.

and the second club from northern germany has now been promoted to 1. bundesliga. with a 3-1 home win against osnabrück, st. pauli secured the second promotion place.
the second club to be relegated will be decided on the final matchday between rostock (vs. paderborn) and wiesbaden (vs. st. pauli)

[Soonandwaite]

congratulations to St.Pauli

and the next north german club is promoted to the first bundesliga. today st.pauli won 3:1 against vfl osnabrück and is promoted to the 1st bundesliga together with holstein kiel.
it is the 7th promotion for st.pauli. now the fans can look forward to bayern, dortmund, stauttgart, leverkusen and other top clubs !
düsseldorf will end up in 3rd place and will play the relegation play-off against the 16th-placed team from the 1st bundesliga

Judging from the performance of Bayer Leverkusen's match, it can be seen that they have quite a strong defense, especially in the current season showing progress with Bayer Leverkusen's match with VPL Bochum 5-0, which proves that their team is quite compact in game strategy and has mastered it. Leverkusen has scored a total of 13 goals in all competitions.bllesing  to their coach and his team, they were very good, making seven goals out of 13 goals decisive in winning. Can Leverkusen win the Europa League title, we will see the continued development of this team.

Wrong thread! This thread is about the 2nd tier Bundesliga, not the 1st tier.

Back to topic. Almost everything is decided in this year's 2nd Bundesliga, the 2 teams going up re set, the team fighting for relegation to the Bundesliga is also set.
Osnabrück is gone and back down to the 3rd BL, only Rostock (31 points) and Wiesbaden (32 points) are still fighting for the remaining relegation spot at the bottom of the table.
Wiesbaden, even though being up 1 point has a tough task since they are facing top ranked team St.Pauli while Rostock faces upper midfield team Paderborn. Both play at home but Rostock MUST win to keep their chances alive, a draw would not be enough cause Wiesbaden has the much better scored goals advantage.

I hope Rostock can somehow manage do move up to 16th and face Regensburg oder Münster in the relegation to stay in.

Düsseldorf vs Magdeburg
Düsseldorf will have one last chance in the Bundesliga. They have qualified for the play-offs. They will want to complete Bundesliga 2 with their unbeaten streak. Against Holstein Kiel they also played a resilient football. Magdeburg, on the other hand, have picked up crucial points in the final weeks of the league. They have only suffered one defeat in their last six league games. I think this match will start fast and furious, both teams are on a good streak and it could end in a draw.
