HSV suffered another defeat on the penultimate
day of the Bundesliga. They lost their away game with
Cottbus by two goals to nil. Egyptian striker Zidan
didn't participate in the game as it was expected.
For the third week in a row, Zidan didn't
make it to HSV selection. The Egyptian is on the way
to recover from intestinal infection that kept him out
of action for a couple of weeks.
HSV faced Cottbus in an away encounter
on Sunday afternoon. The nightmare continued as HSV
suffered another defeat by two goals to nil which pushed
them back to the 5th position in table. They only have
a match to play at home next week and they will have
to win in order to make it to UEFA cup qualifying round.
Otherwise they will fail to achieve European qualification.
HSV were 2nd in the table for quite some
time, but a series of disappointing performances and
results, resulted in them dropping to the 5th spot in
table and losing hope in qualification to the prestigious
Champions League.
It should be noted that Huub Stevens is leaving the club after
next week match and reports linked the club with former coach
of Mido and Ghaly at Spurs Martin Jol. The Dutch manager is
currently negotiating with HSV and might be presented after
end of season as their new manager.
The season has been a big disappointment for
Zidan and hopefully, the situation will change next season
either in HSV or elsewhere.

news and videos....
