Union Berlin only reached the second round of the DFB Cup with a lot of effort and only after a special 30 minute shift. But Union’s top scorer is about to move to Cologne.
Shaken at first, but then came Schlotterbeck!
Union reached the next cup round 1-0 after extra time in second division Karlsruhe. But happy! Nico Schlotterbeck scored the winning goal shortly before the end after Gießelmann’s free kick with a remarkable lateral volley in the penalty area (117th). A huge success after a rather weak performance!
Union is in the second round, and without Sebastian Andersson. Perhaps the Swede no longer plays for El Hierro.
According to BZ information, the attacker is about to change, the league competitor, Cologne, dredges over the Union’s top scorer of the last two years (twelve goals each). First, the Swedish newspaper “Aftonbladet” reported about it. The transfer fee should be around six million euros. Money that the Köpenickers will have to invest in a new attacker.

But maybe a possible successor already played on Saturday! The Philipp Hofmann name has been around for weeks. The KSC forward played Union on Saturday night and improves as the match goes on. High point: in extra time, the muscular attacker heads right after (97º).
According to the union, Andersson is missing, by the way. Fun: on Tuesday in the international match against Portugal (0: 2), the attacker sat on the bench for 90 minutes.
Without Andersson, very little converges on offense
Newcomer Cedric Teuchert bursts into the lead (most recently in Hannover), but until his replacement in the 61st minute almost nothing is seen of him. Marvin Friedrich hit the post early (fourth), that’s all for a long time. Shortly before the end of regulation time, Christian Gentner shot just above the goal (90º). That would have spared the iron the extension.
Notable: KSC’s 300 fans out of 500 viewers do their best, but are not rewarded by their team because Schlotterbeck has something against it.
