Hamburger SV has fired coach Bruno Labbadia, one day after a 5-1 Bundesliga loss at Hoffenheim and only three days before the second leg of the Europa League semifinal at Fulham.
Club chairman Bernd Hoffmann said Monday that assistant coach Ricardo Moniz will take charge to the end of the season. Hamburg has gone through three coaches in the last three seasons.
Labbadia has been under pressure for several weeks and the firing was widely expected after Sunday's loss in Hoffenheim.
There are two games left in the Bundesliga and the Hamburg stadium will host the Europa League final on May 12. Fulham earned a 0-0 draw in Hamburg last week in the first leg.
