Match Info

1. FC Union Berlin edged out VfB Stuttgart 2-1 in a tightly contested Bundesliga clash at the Stadion An der Alten Försterei. A late goal proved decisive for the hosts, who showed typical resilience to overcome a talented Stuttgart side in a hard-fought season opener. Union took the lead midway through the first half with a well-worked set piece, but Stuttgart fought back to level the score early in the second period. The match appeared headed for a draw until Union found a winner in the final ten minutes, sending their passionate home supporters into raptures. The key incident was a moment of individual brilliance from a Union attacker, who cut inside and fired a low shot into the corner to secure the points. This result marks a strong start for Union under their new manager, while Stuttgart will rue missed opportunities to at least take a point from the capital. Union's coach highlighted his team's fighting spirit, while Stuttgart's Sebastian Hoeneß pointed to small margins deciding the game. Union Berlin started with Rønnow; Doekhi, Knoche, Leite; Juranović, Kral, Schäfer, Gosens; Volland; Behrens, and Aaronson. Stuttgart's XI featured Nübel; Stenzel, Anton, Ito, Mittelstädt; Karazor, Stiller; Führich, Millot, Undav; and Guirassy.
