The record of away match against Bayern is terrible? Hamburg coach: I m here at 2-9, and I ll win this time

Hupu September 11th News Bundesliga new team Hamburg cannot be taken lightly before the showdown with Bayern Munich, because the ending of the recent North-South derby has been quite painful for them.

Hamburg head coach Merlin Porzin has no doubt about the courage. "We want to cause some trouble for Bayern at some point," the Bundesliga freshman said in an interview with Hamburg Morning Post, with fighting spirit in his tone ahead of Saturday's seemingly impossible away game: "It must be more than just 'stop the bus'. We will be prepared and strive to win the game."

He certainly knew Hamburg's terrible record in recent matches. Hamburg's scores in recent away games are 0-6, 0-8 and 0-5 respectively. The scores of the away games earlier were 0-8, 1-3 and 2-9 respectively. After the 2-9 defeat, many fans still remember it vividly, and Porzin also said he was present at the time. The team was even forced to invite fans to go to the barbecue. "What should we do? It's hard to disband this team, we still need them," former club chairman Carl Edgar Jajo said to the reporters helplessly.

Of course, that era has long gone. Fighting against "one of Europe's strongest teams" is a big goal for Porzin. “We have done a lot to make sure we can play Bayern Munich in the league,” the newly promoted coach said. Now the time has come.
