Union out despite ending 12-game losing streak with 1-1 drawReal Sociedad close on last-16 place with 3-1 home victory
Union Berlin earned an unexpected 1-1 draw at Napoli in the Champions League on Wednesday, ending their 12-game losing run across all competitions – but it was not enough to keep the Bundesliga side’s hopes of a last-16 place alive.
The hosts dominated the first half and thought they had taken the lead through André-Frank Zambo Anguissa, but the goal was ruled out by VAR for a foul by Giovanni Di Lorenzo in the buildup. Matteo Politano did get the breakthrough before half-time, deflecting home Mario Ruí’s cross at the near post in the 39th minute.
