There are other things that can be used to their advantage in the Champions League.
Even though in terms of competition I agree as you said because this will be very difficult for them but the positive impact is apart from the financial conditions that will definitely increase, this is also a very good learning for them because being in the Champions League by competing against big teams, this will make their mentality and game better.
They know their conditions and they won't have high expectations in the Champions League but at least there are many positive results that benefit them in other ways apart from the competition.
Hopefully, this schedule won't bother them in the Bundesliga because sometimes when a team is used to a tough schedule, it affects them in all competitions and perhaps Atalanta from Serie A is an example that they should avoid in order to avoid the same fate.
Yup, at least this is another advantage for the Union to navigate its season in the Champions League.
Now they just need to hope that in the group phase they are not faced with a troublesome group because in every season there is always a group that can be said to be a hell group because it is filled with several clubs that are strong candidates for champions even other big clubs.
Union must hope for more than this because indeed now they are talking about this competition will be very difficult so the only hope is that they don't meet too many great clubs and championship subscriptions.
Although indeed in this case they will also definitely be difficult to qualify for the knockout phase, but of course being in the top 3 also extends their hopes for other goals in the advantage for the Europa League.
It is likely that Union will be in Pot 4 during the group stage and this pot will also be filled with clubs that will make the Champions League play offs.
With this condition, all possibilities can still occur even though they certainly hope not to meet with big clubs but still being in the Champions League is a place where big clubs compete so whoever their opponents are then inevitably they have to fight it all
But as I said earlier when playing with big clubs there will definitely be some lessons learned, hopefully this can improve them in upgrading the club to be even better in the future.
I agree that Union Berlin played an extremely impressive and succesful Bundesliga season but i also think that the last season was only an exception and it would be pretty naive to really think that Union Berlin can fight for the Bundesliga title again in the coming season. Looking at their suqad i think it is more likely that they will have to fight to not be relegated down to the second division then fighting for the title. After an exceptionally good season there often comes a very bad one afterwards.
This season Union Berlin has excelled in the Bundesliga and their accomplishments are nothing short of astounding. They have surpassed all expectations and continuously challenged the top contenders for the title despite having financial limitations and lacking the significant investments enjoyed by other club. Their incredible run has demonstrated the value of cooperation fortitude and smart planning. While Union Berlin first ever Champions league participation beckons their success has given supporters hope that continued development and wise hiring they may soon become legitimate challengers for the bundesliga championship. Union Berlin undying passion and sheer tenacity epitomise the sport of football and serve as a reminder that anything is possible in the world of sports.
Union Berlin since last season has started to show very good changes in player performance and always looks good so that it can occupy 4th place and even be able to compete with Leverkusen.
This increase seems to have been the plan of the Union Berlin coach to continue to develop the talents of all players so that they can appear perfectly to get tickets to the champions league and compete with big clubs later.
I agree that Union Berlin in the next season will really prove to be even stronger.
Union's advantage this season is that Leverkusen had a bad run in the Seoane era which made the competition in the top 4 quite favorable because only Freiburg was their rival.
Although Xabi gave Leverkusen something very good but they were too late because of the poor performance at the beginning of the season which made Union have the upper hand.
Now they have to look forward to their first season in the Champions League, hopefully it won't make them nervous before the match.
