Not a single point from the last eight competitive matches, Union Berlin is currently far short. Coach Urs Fischer (57) is aware of the critical situation, but says calmly after the 3-1 defeat against Stuttgart: “We have to accept the situation as it is.”
What are the reasons for the silence after the Berliners sensationally qualified for the Champions League last season? In Germany, people talk about the fact that they no longer play the kind of football they are used to. The portal rbb.de writes that it appears as if “someone formatted Union’s hard drive in the summer.”
Bayern legend Stefan Effenberg (55) explains what exactly that means in Sport1’s ‘Doppelpass’: ‘They have made the system more offensive and that is now falling a bit on their feet. Last year they always had this stability, the compactness and the finish with few contacts and were incredibly efficient.
Effenberg: ‘Union has nothing to do with relegation’
If you want to play attacking football, you need one thing above all: passing accuracy. And that is exactly what Union has been missing lately, as Fischer analyzed after the match in Stuttgart. “It is understandable that there is a certain amount of uncertainty after the last few games. When you lose eight times in a row, you don’t have the same confidence.” But the Zurich resident does not want to throw in the towel and categorically rules out leaving the Alte Försterei.
Former Bayern player Effenberg also believes that the Swiss can turn things around: “I can imagine that Urs Fischer will return to what made her so successful over the past three or four years.” And the former German national player is sure, despite his 15th place: “Union will have nothing to do with relegation.” (ch)
