Vuskovic Delivers HSV’s First Bundesliga Win in 2,688 Days After Injuring Hand on Post

The 18-year-old on a season-long loan from Tottenham says he likely broke two fingers, pending medical assessment.

Overview

  • Hamburg beat Heidenheim 2:1 at the Volksparkstadion with Luka Vuskovic opening the scoring in the 42nd minute.
  • Fourteen minutes before his goal, he missed a clear chance and struck the post in frustration in the 28th minute.
  • Post-match images showed a heavily bandaged right hand with splints on his index and middle fingers.
  • Vuskovic described the stadium atmosphere as “crazy” and said he was proud of the team after his home debut.
  • The Croatian defender is the younger brother of HSV’s Mario Vuskovic, who is currently suspended for doping.
