There was no match this Thursday evening between Union SG and Fenerbahce in the Conference League: 0-3!
Facing Fenerbahce, the Union once again faced a European great – after having beaten and eliminated Eintracht Frankfurt not long ago.
No big change from Blessin in the 11th. Teklab is the holder, The chick slides on the bench.
The match started in a slightly special way, with the Turkish supporters throwing smoke bombs onto the pitch from the kick-off.
After this short interlude, the debates can really begin, and they are quite balanced. The Union tries to make the difference and obtains several corners. After a good start to the match, Fenerbahce took the lead in the game…and in the scoreboard.
Batshuayi turns off Lotto Park
On a free kick given from the right, Sykes poorly resists the pressure of Soyuncu and offers assistance to Batshuayi. The former Standard player scores against his former Standard teammate, Anthony Morisand in front of the Lotto Park public (0-1, 20th).

Fenerbahçe keeps possession and deprives the Union of balls. Mohamed Amoura hardly touches the leather. Fred reigns as boss in the center of the field. Kadioglu goes up the field and tries a cross shot, it goes a meter next to Moris’ goal (36th). Fred tries the shot from afar, it misses (44th).
Outclassed in the game, the Union also learned of the suspension of Mohamed Amoura for the return match following a yellow card.
The energy of despair…
The Union started the second half with good intentions, but came up against a real block. The people of Brussels may push, Livakovic has almost nothing to do.

Dusan Tadic, the captain of the Turkish team does not go far from 0-2. At the hour mark, the Union inherited its only real opportunity. On a corner, Burgess regains the lead but the Turkish defense clears well.
Not much is happening anymore… On the Union side, it looks a bit like the energy of despair. The changes made by Blessin bring nothing.
A catastrophic end to the meeting!
The end of the meeting will be very painful for the Union. Author of an ultra-solid performance, Oosterwolde mystifies a much too slow Burgess and beats Moris to make 0-2 (84th).
The Englishman once again experiences a moment of great solitude when he deflects a ball with his arm and offers the penalty for 0-3, converted by Tadic (90th + 4).
The Union without Amoura and Burgess – also stupidly suspended after his foul which led to the penalty – will have to hope for a real miracle in Istanbul.
