HSV were 1-0 at the time of the change following Arnold Mühren's 13th minute goal which left them with a mountain to climb following the 1-0 defeat they had suffered in the 1st leg. Unfortunately they could not find a way back in the 2nd half and Hennie Meijer added a second for the hosts late on. A #14 was not used in this game, Bruno Labbadia was the only substitute used and he wore #13. The result ended the sides interest in the competition for this year, the '87 DFB Pokal winners had beaten Avenir Beggen in the 1st Round.
Correct player size flock print professionally heat pressed, embroidered crest machine stitched and light transfer Adidas trefoil, made from 62% polyester and 38% cotton, design not commercially available, swapped with an Ajax player and comes from their collection - a signed letter verifying this can be provided.
