HSV celebrates return to the Bundesliga 6-1 victory against Ulm!

The Hamburger SV impressively sealed his way back to the Bundesliga with a spectacular 6-1 win against SSV Ulm on May 10, 2025. This triumphal success marks the return of the association after seven years in the lower house after being descended from the highest league in 2018. During the game, the passionate fans stormed the place and the players were surrounded by cheering followers for selfies. A special moment was the presence of Mario Vuskovic, who is currently closed for doping and yet expressed his joy at the climb, although he could not actively participate in the game.

In an atmospheric atmosphere in front of sold -out ranks in the Volksparkstadion, which was fully occupied with 57,000 spectators, the HSV offered an outstanding performance. Ludovit Reis, Ransford Königsdörffer, Davie Selke, Daniel Elfadli and an own goal of Philipp Stompf included the scoring of the game. The goalkeeper Daniel Heuer-Fernandes saved his team from a decisive setback with a held penalty parade. This playful strength not only helped the HSV to climb, but also showed that hard team spirit and tactical prudence pay off.

climb to the turbulent course

The 2024/25 season had a moving course, characterized by a total of seven failed attempts to promote in recent years. The way back was peppered with coaches and changeable shape curves. The new head coach Merlin Polzin, who previously worked as an assistant, took over the helm on the sidelines in December 2024. With the help of assistant coach Loic Favé, the coaching duo managed to keep the team stable on course by remaining the first ten games undefeated and the team led from eight to first place.

The HSV presented itself as offensive and efficient this season. With 70 goals, the club provided the best offensive in the league and achieved an impressive goal difference of +35. Davie Selke, who shone in the absence of Robert Glatzel as a top striker, scored a total of 22 goals and regularly bred his teammates in the limelight. This achievement contributed significantly to one of the strongest appearances of the club in the second division, where the HSV only had to accept six defeats.

The future of HSV

The return to the Bundesliga also gives the Hamburger SV the opportunity to continue its honorable history. The association can look back on a proud record with six championships, three DFB cup victories and two league cup victories and is in sixth place in the eternal table in the Bundesliga. From the 2025/26 season, the HSV will again have the chance to assert itself in Germany's best football league.

The support for the club was overwhelming. Hamburg's mayor as well as many former HSV professionals showed their connection and joy over the rise. The demand for tickets was enormous, which indicates that fans are willing to support their team in the highest league. In addition, the HSV women will also face the opportunity to return to the Bundesliga next Sunday and to further expand the successful history of the association.

With the promotion, Hamburger SV not only celebrates a sporting success, but also a fresh start and the end of a long dry spell. The atmosphere of yesterday's game has made it clear that the return of the HSV to the Bundesliga is a matter close to the heart.
