They’re down to ten men, then they scored. We’ve just equalised from a penalty. Dare we dream?

Not a dream result, but good enough.

RB Leipzig 2 - 2 Hertha BSC

PLAYED 151, won71, drawn 29, lost 51

Düsseldorf won, so only 8 points above the playoff spot, but 13 above direct relegation. Could have been worse. Next , Augsburg at home.

SV Darmstadt 98 1 - 1 SpVgg Greuther Fürth

Played 152, won 71, drawn 30, lost 51

Don't ever hope for regaining our 50 % wins balance. Not with these two collections of rumblefeet.

50% would be nice, but not realistic this season. With RCC in the second tier it was a possibility.

Hertha BSC 2 - 0 FC Ausgsburg

Phew. Early lead, mounting pressure towards the end, late decider by way of a swift counterattack. Suddenly, Hertha are winning the games we have to win. Thanks, Bruno Labbadia. 5 games from the finish line, we are 13 above direct relegation and 11 above the relegation playoff spot, assuming Düsseldorf lose away to Bayern tonight (but come on!). In an ideal world, we could avoid both relegation and relegation playoffs next Saturday, but it would take an away win in Dortmund - go figure...

Imagine how much worse our tally would be if Ross County had completed their fixtures.

1. FC Nürnberg 0 - 1 SpVgg Greuther Fürth

What a great opportunity to make a few off hand remarks to my beloved in-laws :D

Greuther are in 7th, with a decent 41 points for now. Immediate relegation is avoided now, but if Karlsruhe score an unexpected win against Stuttgart tomorrow, there is a theoretical possibility of for Karlsruhe to catch up on us, 9 pts., 13 goals in three matches. So even if we can't pop the champagne right now, we can at least put the it in the fridge.

Played 156 Won 73 Drawn 30 Lost 53.

Hey, 1 - 0 the minute I wrote it. That Pole who wasn't good enough for Milan pu us in the lead.

If we win this, relegation is over at, guess, what, 41 points.

Shit. A red for one of our defenders, shortly before half time. This is going to be hard work.

Hertha BSC 1 - 4 SG Eintracht Frankfurt

Which is quite depressing. However, since Düsseldorf lost at home Dortmund, as they should, we remain 10 points above the relegation playoff spot with three matches to go. So Hertha can fuck up at Bundesliga level again next year, hooray. They have three matches remaining against stronger teams now, and I think we can all imagine what will happen next.

Union are 7 points clear of the relegation zone, and have two home matches against weaker teams. We should see another Berlin twofer next season, whenever that is played.

Played 157 Won 73 Drawn 30 Lost 54.

A nice journalistic gem from FAZ: "with their convincing victory, Frankfurt preserve their theoretical chance for participation in the Europa League. For Hertha, that dream definitvely collapsed today.

The table:
6 VfL Wolfsburg 46 pt.
7 TSG Hoffenheim 43 pt.
(7th qualifies for first qualification round participation in EL if Leverkusen, currently in 3rd, reach CL - because then both Cup finalists would play CL and the place would be passed down)
.
.
9 SG Eintrracht Frankfurt 38 pt. GD -1
10 Hertha BSC 38 pt. GD -11

Yeah, Frankfurt are MILES ahead of us... :roll:

By all means! My last match in the Olympic Stadium was a first round (Sweden 1 - 0 Paraguay) match in the 2006 World Cup. It's been a while.
