Union Berlin, with Jung Woo-young coming off the bench, fell to a 4-1 defeat against Werder Bremen in a dramatic turnaround at the Stadion An der Alten Försterei on March 9th.
This loss marks Union Berlin's second consecutive defeat, leaving them in 11th place with a record of 7 wins, 7 draws, and 11 losses (28 points). Bremen climbed to 13th with 6 wins, 7 draws, and 12 losses (25 points).
Jung, who started on the bench, entered the fray in the 72nd minute, replacing Alyosa Kemlain with his team trailing 2-1. However, the South Korean midfielder was unable to spark a comeback for his side.
According to soccer statistics website FootMob, Jung's 27-minute cameo saw him complete 50% of his passes (1/2), commit one costly turnover leading to a goal, and win 50% of his duels (1/2).
FootMob rated Jung's performance at 5.0, the second-lowest on the team behind defender Leopold Kverfeldt's 4.9.
Union Berlin had taken an early lead through Derik's penalty in the 18th minute. However, their fortunes quickly changed when Andras Scheffer received a red card just a minute later for a foul on Jens Stake.
Bremen capitalized on their numerical advantage, with Olivier Deman equalizing in the 31st minute before taking the lead four minutes later. Union Berlin went into halftime trailing 2-1.
The visitors extended their lead in the second half, with Marco Grull scoring in the 66th minute and Patrice Chobich adding a fourth in stoppage time to seal the 4-1 victory.
