Under the eyes of its public, gathered at the An der Alten Försterei, Union Berlin launched its Bundesliga season against Mainz, this Sunday at 3:30 p.m. Dominating during the first act, Urs Fischer’s men were quick to make the difference since Kevin Behrens opened the scoring from the first seconds (1-0, 1st). The 32-year-old German striker even offered himself a double a few moments later to put his family to take off (2-0, 9th). On returning from the locker room, the band of Ludovic Ajorque tried to react and Anthony Caci reduced the mark shortly after the hour mark (2-1, 64th).
Yes but now, the hero of this match was named Kevin Behrens, author of a hat-trick (3-1, 70th) and great architect of the success of the Berlin formation. In additional time, Milos Pantovic added a new goal for the locals (4-1, 90 + 6th).
