Leipzig women's football: third defeat in a row against Hamburger SV!

RB Leipzig's women's football team suffered a disappointing defeat in their home game against Hamburger SV yesterday. The team had to admit defeat with a 0-1, which marked the third defeat in a row for the Leipzig team. The decisive goal for HSV came in the 77th minute from up-and-coming player Lotta Wrede, who scored her first Bundesliga goal and at the same time secured her team's first win of the season. It was already clear in the first half that things could be difficult for Leipzig, because despite having more possession of the ball, they were unable to get the ball into the opponent's goal.

A look at the game statistics shows that Leipzig certainly tried hard at the start of the game. Lisa Baum hit the side netting in the 21st minute, and Emilia Asgeirsdottir and Julia Landenberger also had several opportunities in the first 30 minutes to decide the game in their favor. But after the break, HSV showed a noticeable improvement. A header from Mia Büchele hit the crossbar in the 48th minute before Wrede finally scored the decisive goal when she broke through outside the opponent's penalty area and shot the ball low into the bottom left corner. Leipzig's Giovanna Hoffmann was unable to turn the tide with a free kick against the crossbar in the 81st minute and Marleen Schimmer in stoppage time, meaning the encounter ended in another defeat.

Lotta Wrede – an aspiring player

18-year-old Lotta Wrede has only been active at Hamburger SV since the summer of 2024, after moving from the U16 boys' team at TSV Bardowick. She made her senior competitive debut on August 18, 2024 in the DFB Cup, where her team easily won against 1. FC Magdeburg. In the second Bundesliga she scored three goals in 15 appearances and contributed significantly to her team's rise to third place in the Bundesliga. Another highlight of her career was reaching the DFB Cup semi-finals, even though she was unable to take part there due to an international absence. She made her Bundesliga debut on September 7, 2025 in a thrilling 3-3 draw against VfL Wolfsburg.

With her goal against Leipzig, Wrede not only secured the three points, but also showed that she could play an important role in Hamburger SV in the future. She has already demonstrated her impressive talent with the Germany U16 national teams, where she scored four goals in a game against Denmark in November 2023.

Standings and outlook

With the win, Hamburger SV moved up to ninth place in the Bundesliga table, while RB Leipzig slipped to tenth place. It will be exciting to see how the league will develop in the coming weeks. Leipzig is under pressure to find a good hand again and make up for the lost points. Maybe the next game will turn things around and the fans can look forward to a revival of their team.

The fact is: The competition is strong and HSV's seasonal boost could give them a decisive advantage. While the women from Leipzig are now required to analyze their mistakes and draw the right conclusions, the Hamburg women can look forward to the well-deserved boost.
