Favre sacked by Hertha (1st Lead)

Berlin - Swiss coach Lucien Favre's position was sacked by Hertha Berlin Monday after attending crisis talks at the Bundesliga basement club. The dismissal comes a day after a 5-1 defeat at Hoffenheim - the club's sixth defeat in a row - left Hertha languishing at the bottom of the table with three points from seven games. Favre, 51, had presided over Hertha's worst start to the season since 1990/91 when the team was relegated. Assistant coach Harald Gaemperle, who blamed the players for Hertha's plight, was also sacked with U-23 coach Karsten Heine named as caretaker coach.
