Hamburg have come from behind to defeat nine-man Werder Bremen 3-2 at home in the Bundesliga.

The visitors took the lead in the ninth minute when Assani Lukimya headed home Aleksandar Ignjovski's corner.

The home side restored parity midway through the first half through Son Heung-Min, who fired in from the left side of the Bremen penalty box.

Dennis Aogo put Hamburg ahead in the game at the start of the second half when he latched on to Son's pass to slot home from just yards out.

It become 3-1 to the hosts on 52 minutes as Artjoms Rudnevs turned in Aogo's cross from the centre of the box.

Bremen, though, came back into the contest just three minutes later, Sokratis Papastathopoulos shooting from outside the Hamburg penalty box.

However, the visitors' chances of a comeback were dashed with 10 minutes of normal time left on the clock when Clemens Fritz was sent off for a second bookable offence.

Bremen finished the game with just nine men on the pitch as Marko Arnautovic was given his marching orders in the first minute of injury time.
