It is very sad to see a team like Union Berlin fall into the relegation zone. Union Berlin performed well in the previous two seasons. And in the last season held the top spot in the points table for a long time. This season I thought Union Berlin's performance would be stronger. I was not at all prepared to see such a collapse of Union Berlin. Bochum finished the season in 15th place in the points table.
For sure its sad to see them this season on the 15th place when they was last season in the top 4 already.
Nobody have expected that they will be playing this bad as they have done this year.
Dont know really why this has happend , as the team dosnt have changed much since last year.
But other teams whas coming better aslo and Berlin can be happy for not got relegated.
Union Berlin was very lucky to avoid the relegation zone, even though they were predicted to drop from the Bundesliga considering their poor performance throughout this season. In the 34th week of the match, Union Berlin was able to win over Freiburg with a score of 2-1. even though, in the previous 7 matches they were unable to win a single match. in other matches, Buchum was unable to win the match or played a draw when visiting Bremen headquarters with a score of 4-1. In the end, Buchum was ranked 16th and had to take part in the playoffs to compete again in the Bundesliga. Even then, with the condition, Buchum must win the fight. At least Union Berlin is still competing in the Bundesliga, even though it is only able to rank 15th.
If I have to speculate based on my personal perspective, Union Berlin is not ready to take part in various competitions this season with players who can be said to have not changed much. in particular, Union Berlin must focus on the Champions League and other competitions. As a result, several players were sidelined due to injuries, they were also unable to play as competitively as in the previous season. well, what I said refers to their performance last season, when Union Berlin focused on the Europa League, their performance declined in the Bundesliga. in the end, Union Berlin was only able to finish in 4th place.
This season, in the last match, Union Berlin survived relegation by defeating the opposing team. yeah, even though it's sad to see their performance, at least we can still see Union Berlin competing in the Bundesliga next summer.
