1:1 - HSV and FCK draw at the Volkspark

... and missed the decisive goal

After the second half, however, the lead was seriously threatened. Immediately after the restart, Heyer slipped away in his own half, opening the way for Lautern's top scorer Boyd, but he failed to clear the ball past Raab, who made a sensational save with his foot and shortly afterwards drove Redondo up the wall for the second time. Raab's saves also seemed to make his front men stronger again, and from the middle of the second half onwards they acted more clearly, became more dangerous and, with a quarter of an hour to go, Glatzel and substitute Königsdörffer had the 2-0 lead on their heads and feet twice. Kittel, however, could have scored it in the 81st minute when he was called for a foul penalty on Reis - but FCK goalkeeper Luthe guessed the corner and, with his save, initiated the counter-attack, which Lobinger was able to put into the net with his long foot in the 82nd minute to make it 1:1. 53 seconds between the game-deciding 2:0 and the equalising 1:1 - that's how close joy and sorrow sometimes are in football. The fans in the sold-out Volksparkstadion nevertheless celebrated their team, which remained unbeaten for the sixth time in a row with the first draw of the season and continues to greet from the top of the table after a highly exciting evening of football.
