Overview

• Werder Bremen beat Hamburger SV 2–0 in the women’s Nordderby before about 37,000 fans at the Weserstadion.
• During the post-match lap, Medina Desic held a fan-made sign depicting the HSV logo inside a poop emoji, which drew boos and on-air criticism, with reports noting a child had handed her the placard.
• On Monday, Desic posted an Instagram apology, saying she acted in a moment of euphoria, did not intend to offend, and regretted the gesture.
• Werder issued its own apology to HSV, condemned abusive messages and reported death threats directed at Desic, and said it is reserving further steps.
• Images of the placard circulated widely on social media, including via high-reach accounts, and it remains unclear whether the DFB will pursue a disciplinary review.
