Jol happy as Hamburg reclaim top berth

BERLIN: Germany winger Piotr Trochowski scored his second consecutive goal of the week as Hamburg went back to the top of the Bundesliga with a 1-1 draw at home to Schalke 04 on Sunday.

Hoffenheim had briefly knocked Hamburg from top spot on Saturday with a 5-2 win over Hanover, but Hamburg's draw with Schalke gave Martin Jol's side the single point needed to go top.

"We are back at the top again, which is pleasing, but with a bit of luck we could have won the game," said Jol.
