1. FC Union Berlin's women's team faces issues in their first Bundesliga season. Injuries hurt them, but they plan to do better soon.
1. FC Union Berlin's women's football team is in their first season in the Bundesliga. They won only four of 14 matches. This puts them in ninth place. Jennifer Zietz, Managing Director of Professional Football, says they hoped for more.
Injuries have hurt the team a lot. Key players Korina Janež, Anna Aehling, and Tomke Schneider missed many games. Zietz says bad luck with injuries kept coming. She knows the players work hard even with these problems.
Zietz has goals for the rest of the season. She wants fewer injuries. The team should get six more points than in the first half. They ended the year with a win over 1. FC Nürnberg. Next, they play Bayer Leverkusen at home in late January.
