Absolutely delighted to welcome Alma Aargaard to the club. She looks the business. Eisern!
Sunday sees our women's first ever Bundesliga game, at home against Nürnberg. Don't miss out on this opportunity, Unioner. Get your tickets NOW! tickets.union-zeughaus.de/unveu/venue/...
We all wish Lucas Tousart the very best as he leaves Union for Brest. Eisern!
Whether Dortmund or Villa, despite the results on the pitch, you couldn't have made us prouder, Unioner.
"We came out of the break well, went for the equaliser, had some good chances, but then the second goal went in and after that the game was more or less decided," said the boss after final whistle. Here's the English match report #BVBFCU | #fcunion
And that, Unioner, is that. As Freddie Frinton once said, The same procedure as every year. We'll be back. Eisern! #BVBFCU | #fcunion
A word, however, for the fans. they have been utterly magnificent, as ever. They'll have sore throats and sore heads in the morning. But what they've brought this occasion has been immense. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. #BVBFCU | #fcunion | 3-0 | 86'
Three nil. Nmecha
To be fair, that was a superb goal from Guirassy, starting it with a flick with his heel, finishing it with a delicate chip. Tim Skarke and Wooyeong Jeong come on for Kral and Trimmel. #BVBFCU | #fcunion | 2-0 | 64'
Two nil for Dortmund. Him again.
No changes from Steffen at the break. And the second half kicks off here in Dortmund. Eisern! #BVBFCU | #fcunion | 1-0 | 46'
A strong start, but a goal down. All to play for. See you in 15. #BVBFCU | #fcunion
1-0 Dortmund. Guirassy. But he seemed to bundle Querfeld over on the way. It stands though. #BVBFCU | #fcunion | 1-0 | 44
Been a cracking start this. Union were quick out of the blocks, hitting long balls up to Ilic and Ansah, snapping into tackles, but Guirassy has had 3 big chances, 2 stopped by Freddie who stood his ground magnificently for one. Ilic and Bellingham are bloodied. #BVBFCU | #fcunion | 0-0 | 30
4,000 Unioner roaring in the stands and eleven more down on the pitch. It's loud in here, almost the perfect setting. And it's kick off in the Westfalenstadion. #BVBFCU | #fcunion | 0-0 | 01'
Freddie's ready #BVBFCU #fcunion
Andrej the giant. #BVBFCU #fcunion
Afternoon, gents.
And the starting XI is in! #BVBFCU | #fcunion
Yes! Enjoy the game. Eisern!
Eisern!
On the road to Dortmund or at home in Berlin (or anywhere and everywhere else)… Love matchday. Eisern! #BVBFCU
Ozzy Orschmann
The best of luck to Yannic Stein on his loan back to Babelsberg. See you in time for next season, keeper.
We are international! Very proud to see this. Thanks @emsandersbbc.bsky.social
Next time :) Travel safe today. Eisern!
Bloody right, too.
There's plenty to be taken from that, Unioner. Here's the English match report from the women's first ever game there. Eisern!
And that's full time. 1-0 for Villa, but we fought til the very end. That was more than worth it. Thanks to the fans for coming, to Villa for having us, andto the players for everything. Bring on Sunday! Eisern #AVLFCU | #fcunion
No changes at the break from Ailien. And the second half kicks off here at the Bescott. #AVLFCU | #fcunion
The smallest Union block we’ve had for a while, but still one of the finest. Some have come from Berlin! Thank you to everyone here. Eisern!
That's half time here at the Bescott, with Villa 1-0 through Rachel Daly. We have risen to a tough challenge so far though, and have brought acouple of fine stops from D'angelo in the Villa goal. Back in 15. #AVLFCU | #fcunion
Nope, sorry
Good game this, both sides playing as if this wasn't a friendly, it means something. And though Villa have had the best chances, Naika has had a well placed header just saved, and Nele Bauereisen was an inch away from Dina's chipped cross from the right. #AVLFCU | #fcunion | 0-0 | 25'
Roy Ackermann, Football God. A* for effort. Eisern!
Hi Ho Silver Lining over the PA, a few hundred fans on the community stand, a cloudy sky, the Union players in red and white. What a way to end pre-season. And it's kick off at the Bescott #AVLFCU | #fcunion | 0-0 | 01'
The players are out, warming up. Happy days. #AVLFCU
Right. VHS's out. Who's old enough to remember this then? Swervedriver, Vic and Bob and the Wonderstuff at the Bescott. 1991 (Bloody hell)
The beautiful Bescott
Well placed sources have informed us that it is of course on the Dahme, not the Spree. Admin will be thrown in the river, whatever it's called to conclude the day
Kick off for our women's first game on English soil against Aston Villa is at 12:30 (UK) 13:30 (DE). Here's all you need to know.
Whether watching in Walsall or racing on the Spree, wishing you a beautiful morning, Unioner.
Wait, hast Du recht. Bi-Monthly, sorry. Or eight times every four months :)
Welcome to a sunny Bodymoor Heath, Villas training Centre, home base for the afternoon session. Eisern!
(Bi-weekly, sorry). But thank you :)
Unioner. A new ENGLISH show for the season. Goals and stories and a little rambling, as ever. Join us for episode one of The Always Magic Never Boring 1. FC Union Berlin Highlights Show.
All your vital Info is here
Just one day to go before the Women’s team‘s first ever Game in England. #fcunion
We wish Elli Seiro nothing but the best as she moves to St. Pölten. She'll always be a part of a side that made history. Eisern! #fcunion
What a weekend it's proving to be, Unioner. The Women vs. Villa, the men in Dortmund, and one of the absolute highpoints of any year at this club... It's the annual dragonboat races on Saturday. Paddles at the ready. Eisern!
All that hard work, England in the horizon.
Cara, Nadine and Mel, women’s first team keepers preparing for the English weather ahead of the trip to Villa (and so on and so on). #fcunion
Lovely stuff. Thank you!
Sebastian Bönig, Football God. Happy birthday, Böni.
Tickets are now available for our women's first ever Bundesliga away games, as well as for their first ever trip to England to play Villa. Leverkusen and Jena are big, but, yes, English Unioner, this means you too. @AVWFCOfficial on Saturday at the Bescot is a must! #fcunion
Lovely stuff here from @libertysimons.bsky.social for @herfootballhub.bsky.social . Thank you!
Welcome to the Alte Försterei, gents. Pretty good, eh?
"I'll look back on today with fond memories," said Ilyas Ansa, the humblest man in the room. Here's the English match report so you can too.
And that, Unioner, is that. There was VAR drama at the end as the guests had one ruled out, but we won't remember that for long. What a day, what a start. What a win. Eisern! #FCUVfB | #fcunion
Tiago Tomas has just got one back for the guests with a lovely flick of the heel. FCUVfB | #fcunion | 2-1 | 86'
Steffen has made a couple of changes, with Kral and Köhn coming on for Skov and Haberer, before Ansah gets the loudest cheers when he's replaced by Oliver Burke. Freddie's been superb again this half, but then they all have, Doekhi and his partners particularly. #FCUVfB | #fcunion | 2-0 | 79'
The stadium is now bathed in sunshine as the second half kicks off. There have been 15 goals now in the last two and a half games between these two sides. More? Probably. Eisern! #FCUVfB | #fcunion | 2-0 | 46'
And that's the break, Unioner. Wow, Ilyas. #fcunion | #FCUVfB
Oh my God he's just done it again!!!! Ilic and Ansah combine, and Ilyas finishes it off with another gorgeous volley, this one at knee height. Nübel had no chance!!!!! #FCUVfB | #fcunion | 2-0 | 45'
Hell of a game this. Rönnow has made two wonderful stops, but we are also attacking with verve and pace. And Ansah's goal... Bloody hell. #FCUVfB | #fcunion | 1-0 | 39'
Ilyas Ansah has just scored a goal of utter briliance, volleying it from the edge of the box, flat and hard and in off the post!!! #FCUVfB | #fcunion | 1-0 | 18'
The stadium is bathed in sunshine, a choreo fills the terraces, red and white from top to bottom, quoting the legendary Ton Steine Scherben: "Hold tight to your love". Couldn't have put it better. And a new season kicks off in the Alte Försterei. #FCUVfB | #fcunion | 0-0 | 01'
First game in his new home. Eisern, Derrick! #fcunion
A good knight, leaning on the bar
Freddie... Well.... Freddie's ready.
And the starting XI is in! #fcunion | #FCUVfB
The stadium is filling, chatter in the air of old friends back in old spots on the terraces. It's exciting, there's nothing better than the first day of the season.
Football weather
Oberschöneweide. Match day number one. Eisern! #fcunion
Not long now, Unioner. It's the first home game of the season! Who's coming?
Look who's staying, Unioner. Josip Juranović has signed a new deal!!!! (Now that's how to start a Friday.) Eisern! #fcunion
Only two players in our history have won the Unioner of the year three times in a row. Not even Potti Matthies or Oskar Kosche managed it, though like those legends, they are keepers. Unioner... Jan Glinker and Frederik Rönnow. Eisern!
Congratulations to Freddie for the third time and Captain Fantastic. Unioner of the year. Eisern! www.fc-union-berlin.de/en/news/lisa...
Don't go chasing waterfalls... as three wise women once sung Derrick, Janik and Stanley in training
It's official. Mainz 05 in the women's DFB Pokal #fcunion
And as the last draw in the pot... it's Mainz 05
Anyone watching the draw for the women's DFB Pokal? We will, of course keep you posted....
Derrick Köhn is an Unioner. Derrick Köhn is an Unioner. Derrick Köhn is an Unioner. Derrick Köhn is an Unioner. Derrick Köhn is an Unioner. Derrick Köhn is an Unioner. Yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh Maaaaaaan!!!!!! (Sorry. Welcome to the club, Derrick. Eisern!) #fcunion
Good morning from the most beautiful place on Earth. Eisern!
Thinking of visiting the Alte Försterei for the first time? @markjb.bsky.social put together a guide on tickets, sectors, forest walks, pubs, and everything that makes FCU’s home unique! www.unionberlin.international/blog/alte_fo...
Our friends at @stadio.football have produced this wonderful video to accompany their relaunch. Check it out, you might recognise some particular moments of wonder. And amongst the poetics and the glory, they fit right in nicely.
So, how was your weekend? Morning, Unioner. Eisern!
Bloody hell, having dispatched FC Kopenhagen and Eintracht Frankfurt, the U17s won the Youngster Cup today. This is a huge success, and respect is due to every single one of them. Eisern! #fcunion
The Real players looked on at the end as if in wonderment. How far we've come, Unioner. Here's the English match report to the finest of friendlies. #fcunion | #FCURMA
And that, Unioner, is that. A wonderful occasion, a battling performance. There is so much from today to be proud of, from the players, to the club to the fans. Wow. Eisern! #FCURMA | #fcunion | 1-3
13,132!!!!! For those not listening at the back, that's over 13,000 people here today for a women's pre-season friendly. Unbelievable. Thank you all of you. #fcunion | #FCURMA | 1-3 | 75
That was Signe Bruun as well. Apologies. Admin has been taken out and shot.
Signe Bruun scored for Real. Sorry.
Well, Navarro had just completed her hattrick, but that is immaterial as Naika dribbles down the left, finds Dina Orschmann, who places a fine low shot across goal, through the eye of a needle and inside the back post. #FCURMA | #fcunion | 1-3 | 50'
And that's the break. Real are 2-0 up after Navarro's excellent header doubled the lead, but there is plenty to be positive about here. See you in 15. #FCURMA | #fcunion | 0-2 |
Though Real are a goal up through Eva Navarro's lovely low volley after 15 minutes - and are playing some sharp stuff - Union haven't looked overwhelmed or cowed by their opponents. Korina and Eileen have both been played in neatly, too. #FCURMA | #fcunion | 0-0 | 24'
