Mohamed Zidan came on as sub for Guerrero in the 67th minute of HSV's home match versus Hertha Bsc which ended in a 2-1 win for the homeside. Guerrero scored the first goal for HSV while Hertha managed to equalize in the 59th minute. However, Reinhardt headed home a few minutes later to grant HSV a precious win which kept them in the 2nd spot with two points only away from the leaders, Bayern Munich.
Mohamed Zidan played as starter in the past few matches. However, he didn't start in the home clash with Hertha BSC on Saturday after the return of Rafael Van der Vaart. The Egyptian played out of position lately as he played the role of left winger, right winger and support man in the latest few matches and so, he couldn't get in a good position to score goals.
Hamburger SV on the other hand are currently on top form and they managed to keep their form against Hertha BSC as they won by two goals to one which put them two points away from Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga table as the Bavarians failed to win against Frankfurt and their home game ended in 0-0 draw.
Generally. HSV were the better side and created alot more chances than Hertha. The first goal in the game came early on through Guerrero who found himself left with a simple finish and scored in the 4th minute.
Guerrero almost added a 2nd goal when he fired a volley shot at goal but his shot was denied by the bar. Minutes later, Olic sent a shot with his left but the post denied him and another chance went begging.

In the second half, the guests equalized through Ebert who sent a poweful shot with his right from inside the box into the far corner.
In the 67th minute, Zidan came on to help in attack as he replaced Guerrero. The Egyptian helped his side reclaim their lead although he didn't get involved in the build up of the goal which came in the 81st minute through the defender Reinhardt who headed the ball home from close range after a cross from the right wing by Vander Vaart. Hopefully, Zizou will be able to score in the coming games as the Egyptian was extremely unlucky not to score for HSV since the kick off of this season apart from his goal versus Bayern Munich. |
