اونیون برلین مقابل شالکه 04

Union Berlin were made to pay for a wasteful finishing display at the Alten Försterei, falling 1-3 to newly promoted Schalke despite dominating possession and out-shooting their visitors. The hosts had the better of the ball all night, but it was Schalke who made their limited chances count, leaving Union with plenty to rue. Robin Gosens put Schalke ahead in the 25th minute against his former club, and Adil Aouchiche doubled the lead just a minute into the second half. Tim Skarke gave the home crowd hope with a strike deep into stoppage time, but Maximilian Wöber restored Schalke's two-goal cushion moments later to complete the scoring. No cards or penalties defined the contest, just clinical finishing from the away side. For Schalke, it's their first win of the campaign after an opening loss at Augsburg and a battling draw with Bayern Munich, a result that shows there's more to their season than just defensive grit. Union Berlin, meanwhile, remain stuck on just one point after three matches and now face a daunting trip to Bayern Munich, with defensive fragility becoming a real concern.
