Jordan and Becker also score against Wolfsburg – Union Berlin defends the lead in the table

Undefeated in 14 league games

1. FC Union Berlin is also enthroned in the international break at the top of the Bundesliga. Coach Urs Fischer’s team beat VfL Wolfsburg 2-0 (0-0) in Sunday’s home game and successfully defended the lead they took the previous week – the “Iron” team has been unbeaten in the league for 14 games throughout the season .

The goals came from 6 million new signing Jordan in the 54th minute and top scorer Sheraldo Becker in the 77th minute. The Wolfsburg, on the other hand, slipped down to a direct relegation zone after their fourth defeat of the season.

At Union, Timo Baumgartl was back in the starting XI for the first time a little over four months after his testicular cancer became known. The central defender was substituted after 62 minutes to great applause at the An der Alten Försterei stadium. Shortly before the end, the Berlin fans chanted: “Without Kruse you have no chance”, alluding to Max Kruse, whom VfL signed for 5 million euros from Union last January and who is now on the outside under Kovac.
