The Union Berlin and FC Köln teams have both won their matches in recent weeks and are now on the verge of securing top positions in the German Bundesliga.

In their latest encounter, Union Berlin defeated FC Köln 2-1 at the Allianz Arena, with goals from goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and midfielder Thomas Meunier.

Neuer's goal came after just six minutes as he managed to save a shot from FC Köln forward Daniel Tannoudji before making a diving save to keep the ball out of his net.

However, it was the efforts of midfielders Thomas Meunier and Thomas Müller that really brought the Union Berlin side into the game.

Meunier scored the first goal for Union Berlin when he headed home a corner kick from a corner kick from Müller, while Müller converted the second goal by scoring from a free-kick from a corner kick from a corner kick from Meunier.

The performance of the players has been impressive, and they have improved their league standings significantly.

Despite losing to FC Bayern Munich earlier this season, the Union Berlin team has been working hard to improve their form since then.

Their performances against the likes of Schalke and RB Leipzig were particularly pleasing, and they look set to continue making progress in the upcoming matches.

As the season progresses, the Union Berlin team will need to perform better than they did against FC Köln, but they are already well placed to secure top positions in the Bundesliga.
