Their hopes of holding on to victory were dealt a blow when Florian Klein earned his marching orders with more than half an hour still to be played.

However, it was not until the final six minutes that Hamburg were able to take advantage of the extra man, Pierre-Michel Lasogga levelling before Johan Djourou grabbed a winner to leave Stuttgart at the foot of the table following two defeats and Hamburg celebrating their first win of the campaign.
