Hamburger SV falls to RB Leipzig in second consecutive Bundesliga defeat
Summary

Hamburger SV suffered a 5-0 loss against RB Leipzig at the Red Bull Arena on Sunday, marking the club's second straight defeat by that margin. Tidiam Gomis opened the scoring in the 17th minute, followed by an Antonio Nusa goal to put the hosts ahead early. Despite an improved performance after halftime, Hamburger SV conceded three additional goals within a seven-minute span late in the match from Willi Orbán, Christopher Nkunku, and Rômulo. The result leaves the club at the bottom of the table with no points and no goals after three league matches. Sporting director Claus Costa characterized the result as sobering but rejected the possibility of immediate structural changes. The team is scheduled to host Köln in their next league fixture as they attempt to improve their form.
