Castro-Montes curls Union to 15 out of 15 in Bruges
With discipline and a clear plan, Union delivered an outstanding performance at the Jan Breydel Stadium. A magnificent placed shot just after the half-hour mark from Castro-Montes secured three points. Union has now won its first five matches of the Champions' Play-offs.
A pass from Moris found Ivanovic, Sadiki picked up the ball and set up Castro-Montes. Alessio cut inside at the edge of the box and curled it into the far corner past Mignolet. 0-1 Union.
Apart from Ivanovic’s earlier chance, it was the only real highlight of the first half. After the break, the home side had to push forward, and they did towards the end. But Moris kept us in front with a save on a shot from Tzolis. Although earlier, Mignolet should have done the same on an effort from Ivanovic.
Union held onto the victory with style and discipline. Five games in, five wins. A remarkable achievement by Poco and the gang! Now onto Sunday, onto the Duden Park for part two against Club Brugge. Allez l'Union!
