HSV Coach Criticizes Game Schedule: "Not Cool" - HSV Women's Coach Slams Match Scheduling Ahead of Crucial Bundesliga Clash

HSV Women's Coach Liese Brancao has raised concerns about the scheduling of their crucial Bundesliga match against Carl Zeiss Jena. The women's game is set for Saturday at 2:00 PM, followed by the men's match against RB Leipzig at 3:30 PM at the Hamburger Volksparkstadion. Brancao expects her players to watch the men's team's tablet after their own match.

The women's match is a significant one, with HSV currently in mid-table and Jena fighting to avoid relegation. HSV has had mixed results this season, including a heavy 6:2 loss to SC Freiburg and a 3:3 draw with VfL Wolfsburg. Meanwhile, Jena has shown signs of improvement, recently securing a 1:0 win against 1. FC Köln, putting them closer to safety.

Brancao has criticized the scheduling, fearing that many fans will prioritize the men's match, which follows shortly after the women's game. She believes this could lead to reduced attendance and support for her team's crucial fixture.

The women's match is a vital one for both teams, with HSV aiming to maintain their mid-table position and Jena desperate to avoid relegation. Despite Brancao's concerns, the game is set to go ahead as scheduled, with the coach hoping for a strong showing from her team and the fans.
