I tuned into the Union game last night with some trepidation. Away in Berlin to a team undefeated in 7 games this season, and fresh of a draw away to Bayern Munich in a match they should have won, Union were given some pretty hefty odds coming away with even a point, let alone 3...!!!
But in a first half were both teams struggled in a scrappy affair, it was Boniface who had the only moment of quality, shifting into space and putting the perfect pass for Lynen to score. And then after a half where Berlin threw the kitchen sink and bathroom sink at us, we somehow managed to hold on for a win.
A special victory!!! And out of nowhere, a potential chance to get out of the group..... really looking forward to the match next week at home, if we can beat Malmo, the impossible job is on.
And if we dont? Well, when I discovered this little club at the end of my road when I moved to Brussels 5-6 years ago, if you'd told me we'd be playing in the Europa League at this stage, I'd have told you to see a shrink. Its been a fun journey, and I am buzzing about just seeing them play in Europe. If we get beat 6-0, who cares. Everyone at the club should be proud of what they have achieved in such a short space of time.
