Croatia international scored an unbelievable goal, which brought HSV victory. The powerful kick hit the very corner.

Hamburg witnessed a Bundesleague derby between HSV and Werder and the absolute hero of the match was Croatia international Ivica Olic, who set the final score 2:1 with his beautiful goal, giving the club valuable three points, as it is struggling for the top of the rankings.

The match was played in front of 50,000 football fans; Guerrero took Hamburg into the lead in the sixth minute, but Diego equalised in the 24 th minute.

The match was calm for quite a while, although the HSV tightened the rope. Seeing how his players are not trying to score from he outside, Olic decided to do something he does not do too often.

He received the ball on the right hand side, dragged it a bit to the 16 metre edge, dribbled the ball a bit to the left and kicked it, firmly and hard. It went down perfectly and ended up in the right upper corner of Wiese`s net, who just smiled, but could not find his bearings: `How come it was Olic?`.

It should be pointed out that another Croatia international, Mladen Petric, placed until the 90 th minute.

It was the best revenge, which Stemberger and Marshall had plenty to learn from. To win against the opponent in their game, kicking is not the solution and nobody wins in the end.
