Bundesliga: Union Berlin move atop with win over Mainz

BERLIN: Goals from Kevin Behrens and Jordan Siebatcheu helped Union Berlin move 2-1 past stubborn Mainz and to extend their winning run to four games in the 19th round.

The 'Eisernen' gained the upper hand from the start and came close with 10 minutes gone as Mainz goalkeeper Finn Dahmen had to palm away Jerome Roussillon's attempt from 16 meters, reports Xinhua news agency.

The hosts continued on the front foot and opened the scoring 32 minutes into the clash after Paul Seguin's low cross to the far post found Behrens, who tapped home from very close range.

Mainz took over after the restart whereas Union kept all its men behind the ball to secure the narrow win.
