FC Union Berlin’s women’s team secured a hard-fought 1–1 draw against Hamburger SV on Sunday.

Union Berlin entered the match with only twelve available players due to a lengthy injury list. Marina Georgieva, recently signed after a spell without a club, made her first start for the team. The hosts dominated early chances but struggled to convert them into goals.

The draw provides Union Berlin with a much-needed morale boost after weeks of setbacks. Their injury-hit squad will now prepare for a tough away fixture against Hoffenheim. Meanwhile, Hamburger SV leaves with a point, thanks to a late equaliser and strong goalkeeping.
