Wolfsburg / Berlin (dpa) - Bundesliga soccer team 1. FC Union Berlin wants to learn from the damper in the fight for an international starting place for the two final games of the season.

«We weren't ready for the task - amazingly.

But there are such games, you have to accept that.

You can also learn from such defeats, ”said Union coach Urs Fischer after the 3-0 defeat at VfL Wolfsburg.

"We didn't get access to the game, that's pretty unusual for us," said former Wolfsburg Christian Gentner.

Despite the eighth defeat of the season, the Berliners are tied for a place in the Conference League in the duel with Borussia Mönchengladbach, which even went down 6-0 at the new German champions Bayern Munich. However, Union has to play in the last two games at Bayer Leverkusen and receives RB Leipzig at the season finale. "We annoyed the big clubs in the first half of the season and want to make the two games as good as possible," said defender Robin Knoche fiercely.

The kickers again received active support from some Union supporters who had accompanied the team bus by motorcycle escort and also supported their team during the game.

“We actually still noticed that.

This is our special fan culture, which makes itself heard loudly.

That's what sets the club apart, "said Gentner happily," we would have liked to have given them a point or three, but that wasn't possible with their performance. "

Despite the setback and even if he missed the international starting position, Union manager Oliver Ruhnert has already drawn a positive conclusion to the season.

“That won't change a game.

So the praise remains, no matter what happens in the last few games in principle. "
