Union Berlin collects embarrassing 0-6 shock at Borussia Dortmund!
Dortmund, Deutschland - On February 22, 2025, the 1. FC Union Berlin experienced a bitter defeat against Borussia Dortmund. The game ended 0: 6, with the host in Signal Iduna Park in front of over 80,000 spectators: showing a dominant performance inside. The result marks the seventh defeat for Union in Dortmund, and the seventh competitive game in which they could not win.
The game took a decisive turn in the 25th minute when Diogo Leit, defender of Union, achieved an own goal and brought Dortmund in the lead. In the 40th minute, Serhou Guirassy increased to 2-0 after a flank from Pascal. Guirassy should stand out in the course of the game, because he scored three more goals in the second half.
Torgala by Guirassy
The second half started for Union unfavorably when Guirassy scored 3-0 in the 75th minute and only five minutes later the 4-0. He continued his peat festival in the 83rd minute with the 5: 0, again after a cross from Groß, who booked a total of four assists in the game. Maximilian Beier set the final point in the 90th minute with the 6: 0.
Union had worked heavily at the beginning, but declined in the course of the game. Apart from a noteworthy shot in Hollerbach in the 35th minute, the team had hardly any offensive campaigns. Dortmund, on the other hand, dominated the game and was characterized by a variety of unused opportunities. Guirassy, who gave a total of eight shots on top, was particularly active.
strategic changes in Union
Union coach Steffen Baumgart was forced to rethink his strategy after the last defeat against Mönchengladbach. He took three changes: Tom Rothe replaced the injured Robert Skov, while Lucas Tousart and Andras Schäfer slipped into the starting eleven for Janik Haberer and Tim Skarke. Despite the changes, Union remained in 13th place in the table and continues to have nine points ahead of the relegation place.
The encounter was characterized by intensive actions, including the performance of Karim Adeyemi, which was put under opposing pressure 21 times. Maximilian Beier was the fastest player in the game at a speed of 34.05 km/h. Marcel Sabitzer's pass efficiency was remarkable, with a difference of +3.08.
While Dortmund underlines his ambitions in the Bundesliga with this victory, Union Berlin remains challenged to eliminate his own defensive weaknesses. Further challenges are waiting in the upcoming encounters for both teams.
