Stuttgart vs Hamburger SV

Stuttgart put on a commanding show at home, demolishing Hamburger SV 4-0 on matchday 29. The hosts were in full control from the first whistle, never letting their guests breathe. Angelo Stiller broke the deadlock in the 22nd minute, assisted by Jamie Leweling, and Chris Führich doubled the lead on 31 minutes off a neat Ermedin Demirovic pass. Maximilian Mittelstädt made it three on 56 minutes before Bilal El Khannouss rounded things off in the 86th. Deniz Undav spurned a late penalty — blazing over the bar in the 82nd — and a Demirovic strike was chalked off by VAR for offside. The result lifts Stuttgart above RB Leipzig into third place, keeping their Champions League push firmly on track. For Hamburger SV, still without the injured Luka Vuskovic and Albert Lokonga and suspended Miro Muheim, it was a fourth straight game without a win — and their season is suddenly looking a lot shakier.
