Many Hamburger SV Fans Seriously Injured In Bundesliga Promotion Celebrations
Hamburg returned to the Bundesliga after seven years but one fan suffered 'life-threatening injuries' and 19 more were seriously injured during the celebrations. One Hamburger SV fan suffered 'life-threatening injuries" and 19 more were seriously injured in celebrations after the team's return to the Bundesliga, local fire services said Sunday. The Hamburg Fire Department launched what it called a 'major emergency response" to contend with Hamburg fans celebrating promotion on Saturday, when thousands of supporters stormed the field. Some 44 supporters needed medical treatment, including 25 who were taken to local hospitals, of whom five had just minor injuries. Hamburg clinched its long-awaited return to the top division with a 6-1 rout of Ulm, ensuring it will finish among the top two in Germany's second division and automatic promotion to the Bundesliga. Hamburg endured six seasons of just missing out on promotion since its demotion from the top division before success at the seventh attempt. The club was previously known as 'der Dino" because it was the last surviving member of the Bundesliga to have played every season since its formation in 1963. But it was finally relegated in 2018 after several close calls. Hamburg SV Back In Bundesliga Six-time German champions Hamburg SV earned a triumphant promotion back to the Bundesliga after a seven-year absence, with Saturday's 6-1 demolition of Ulm guaranteeing them a top two finish in the second division with a game left to play. The 1983 European Cup winners, once nicknamed the Bundesliga 'dinosaurs' for having been in the top division for the longest uninterrupted spell since the league's creation in 1963, suffered a shock first ever relegation in 2018. They then repeatedly missed chances to go back up, losing key matches in the final stretches of previous seasons, but they would not be denied promotion this time. Ulm stunned the hosts with a seventh minute lead through Tom Gaal but Hamburg bounced back just three minutes later to level with Ludovit Reis. Ulm then saw Semir Telalovic' 36th minute penalty saved by Hamburg keeper Daniel Heuer Fernandes before the hosts struck twice late in the first half through Ransford-Yeboah Koenigsdoerffer's superb chip and Davie Selke's 22nd league goal to earn a commanding lead. They picked up where they left off and made it 4-1 thanks to Philipp Strompf's own goal in the 49th before Koenigsdoerffer bagged his second with a solo effort and low drive from the edge of the box. Daniel Efadli made it half a dozen in the 86th as fans gathered around the pitch to storm it on the final whistle. With one game remaining, Hamburg are top on 59 points, with Cologne second on 58 and Elversberg third on 55. The third-placed team goes into a promotion/relegation playoff with the 16th team of the Bundesliga. Ulm are relegated to the third division.

Fallen Hamburg Return To Bundesliga After Seven-Year Absence
Fallen German giants Hamburg won automatic promotion to the Bundesliga after a seven-year absence with a 6-1 home thumping of lowly Ulm on Saturday. As the full-time whistle went, fans in the 57,000-strong Volksparkstadion stormed the pitch to celebrate with the players. One of only three German clubs to win the European Cup, the precursor to the Champions League, and a six-time league champion, Hamburg were relegated for the first time in their history in 2018. Coming into the game needing a victory to guarantee promotion, Hamburg fell behind after seven minutes when Ulm's Tom Gaal scored, but hit back three minutes later through Ludovit Reis. After Ulm missed a 36th-minute penalty, Hamburg calmed their nerves with two quick goals before half-time through Ransford-Yeboah Koenigsdoerffer and Davie Selke. Ulm conceded an own goal from Philipp Strompf early in the second half before Koenigsdoerffer added another. Daniel Elfadli scored with four minutes remaining to put Hamburg on course for the top flight after 2,555 days. Despite resources which dwarf many top-flight teams, Hamburg were unable to return to the top division, finishing fourth three times and third twice. The return was piloted by rookie coach Merlin Polzin, 34, who was born in the city and grew up as a Hamburg fan. "We've suffered some really tough setbacks as a team, but we've always bounced back," Polzin said before the match. "That gives me a very, very good feeling and confidence that we can make tonight a very special evening." The victory took Hamburg one point clear of Cologne atop the Bundesliga 2 table. Cologne, relegated last season, need at least a point in their final match next week to join Hamburg in the top flight. Also on Saturday, Holstein Kiel and Bochum were confirmed relegated from the top division. Ulm's defeat seals their relegation to the third tier alongside Jahn Regensburg.
