Hamburger SV fought back from a goal down to claim a 1-1 draw away to CA Osasuna that
earned the Bundesliga side an away-goals victory in the UEFA Champions League third qualifying
round and a place in the group stage.
Cueller opener
Primera División side Osasuna, who held Hamburg 0-0 in the first leg, looked on the verge of going
through after Carlos Cuellar put them in front six minutes into the second leg. The defender squeezed
a header past keeper Sascha Kirschstein at the far post after meeting an outswinging corner by
David Lopez.
Late goal
The Navarrans held their lead until 16 minutes from the final whistle when midfielder Nigel de Jong
bundled in at the far post after Benjamin Lauth had sent a diving header across the front of the
goal following a free-kick.
Webo miss
Osasuna poured forward for the remainder of the match, but they spurned a late chance to snatch
victory when substitute Pierre Webo guided a close-range header over the bar in the final minute.
