During a weekend in which Bayern Munich completed a second successive domestic double by beating Borussia Dortmund in the German DFB cup final in Berlin, another important Bundesliga match was staged at the Trolli Arena in Furth. Hamburg SV are the only team to have played in the Bundesliga since its creation in 1963 and have never been relegated from the top flight of German football, but they faced a relegation playoff second leg match against Greuther Furth with the extension of their proud record at stake.
