Even if FC Union Berlin had led the German Bundesliga until the sixth matchday of the season, their inaugural Europa League campaign was still a complete flop. Seven days after losing 0-1 to Union St. At home to Gilloise, Urs Fischer's FC Union Berlin are still suffering a similar loss to Sporting Braga in Portugal due to their poor form in the Europa League. Now, Braga and St. Gilloise is in first place in Group D of the Europa League with six points, while Union and Malmö FF of Sweden are still without points.
FC Union Berlin has no mentality when playing outside the Bundesliga, two consecutive defeats in the Europa League further strengthens the suspicion that FC Union Berlin will find it difficult to reach the knock-out stage. A different appearance was actually shown in the Bundesliga, Urs Fischer managed to bring FC Union Berlin to the first place in the Bundesliga standings list.
The poor results obtained in the Europa League are very disappointing for FC Union Berlin fans, they must see their favorite team experience difficulties when playing outside the Domestic League.
