Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer is a player of Hamburg
Black Stars forward, Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer, was back among the goal-scorers on Saturday, May 3, 2025, netting his 12th league goal of the season to help Hamburg SV thrash Darmstadt 4-0 and edge closer to Bundesliga promotion.
After going five games without a goal, Königsdörffer ended his mini-drought in style, scoring Hamburg’s second of the night in the 57th minute.
The 23-year-old reacted brilliantly to a corner, firing home on the turn to give HSV a comfortable cushion and silence recent doubts about their form.
It was a timely contribution, both personally and for the team, as Hamburg had gone three games without a win before this emphatic result.
The victory takes Hamburg, at least temporarily, to the top of the Bundesliga table with two matches to go.
LlGoals from Ludovit Reis, Davie Selke, who grabbed his 21st of the campaign, and Robert Glatzel added further gloss to a performance that could prove decisive in their long-awaited push for promotion.
HSV now has the opportunity to seal its return to the top flight next weekend when it hosts SSV Ulm at home.
Königsdörffer, who now has 12 goals and three assists in 31 league games, has been one of Hamburg’s standout performers this season.
His pace, directness, and ability to strike at key moments have made him a vital part of coach Merlin Polzin’s promotion-chasing side.
With momentum restored and confidence high, HSV and Königsdörffer are within touching distance of bringing Bundesliga football back to Hamburg after a seven-year exile.
