Bang: HSV finished Chaos week with 6-2 win over Cologne

They romped around like little boys in front of the north stand. Mladen Petric to put the ball under the jersey, Joris Mathijsen bounced like a rubber ball back and forth, and the fans of Hamburger SV sang happy. It took only 90 minutes and six goals, receiving assistance from the chaos in the euphoria.

Football is a fast business - and with the 6-2 (4-0) against 1 FC Köln, the HSV ended his tumultuous week of the break with a bang. New board, new coach, a new spirit? "It was just a first step, this level must now keep," said coach Michael Oenning, "it is good we managed to play us to the frustration of the soul." A week ago was the proud Bundesliga Dino ko on the ground.

0: 6 at Bayern Munich, desperate performance in disarray. On Sunday, coach Armin Veh go, the former assistant Oenning took over. Wednesday was followed by the separation of CEO Bernd Hoffmann and his loyal marketing specialist Katja Kraus. Carl Edgar Jarchow took over the job acting as a board boss.

Everything to zero at HSV. And then came the first FC Cologne. Sometimes you have luck with the game plan. The Rhine countries are the weakest away team in the league. "We are of course constantly confronted with the issue away," said FC coach Frank Schaefer, "we are well prepared, done many things differently than before and have been seeking ways to overturn the buck." So was the grandiose failure.

After the 0:1 by Mladen Petric (12) were wrong, the Cologne players around so disoriented as Hennes billy goat on a stray field. "After 0-1, the team was overwhelmed," said Schaefer, "we have the enemy offered rooms that you must never surrender." More Hits from Petric (38, 43) and a gate of the shiny Änis Ben-Hatira (32) the game already decided before the break.

"It was then only to limit the damage, therefore, of the 2-2 in the second half is very good," said defender Christian Eichner, "It is crucial that we deal properly with the defeat. Three months ago I would have worried me, but the club is now stable. "Gojko Kacar (52) and Ze Roberto, the 330th with its Bundesliga match the record set by Sergei Barbarez as a foreigner with most Premier League ceased operations, with a penalty kick (58th) completed the shooting match in Hamburg.

Mato Jajalo (50) and Lukas Podolski (62) were successful in the "training game" of the second half for the FC. "Of course we are not at all out of the relegation battle out," Eichner said, "so is always the pressure to win the home games to have." When HSV they now have two days off. Oenning can savor the triumph - "let's see what my family says.

Then he must work to ensure that this victory is just another flash in the pan remains, as so often with HSV. Saturday's certainly much work out. Ruud van Nistelrooy was committed, the injured Dennis Diekmeier long celebrated a successful debut HSV, Petric hit. "We showed a sensational response to the last game," said the Croat, "This success was, of course, good for our heads."
