What had been in the air for weeks became a fact today: Hertha BSC has dropped out of the Bundesliga. The gatekeeper played a 1-1 draw against Bochum in the German capital, but that was not enough to save himself.
So bad news for tastemaker Dodi Lukebakio.
The Red Devil – who completed the ninety minutes – seemed to give Hertha the lead in the nineteenth minute after a solo, but his goal was rejected after a VAR intervention.
Halfway through the second half, the home team did score. After a corner, Lucas Tousart was in the right place to open the score with a striking head.
But in the absolute final phase, the game took a dramatic turn for Lukebakio and co. Keven Schlotterbeck crushed Hertha’s hopes with a header goal.
In the standings of the German first division, Hertha Berlin remains eighteenth and last with 25 points, four points behind number seventeen Stuttgart.
Number fifteen Bochum is also still fighting against relegation. The club is in the last safe place with a point ahead of Schalke, who at the same time drew 2-2 against Eintracht Frankfurt.
