After a goalless first stanza, Taiwo Awoniyi broke the deadlock for Union early in the second stanza and Sheraldo Becker secured the three points with the second goal in the last eight minutes.

Borussia Monchengladbach missed the chance to move up to sixth on the log after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Stuttgart at Borussia-Park.

Konstantinos Mavropanos got the opener for Stuttgart in the first quarter of an hour but Jonas Hofmann levelled matters for Gladbach just before the half-time break.

Hertha Berlin bagged their third win of the season after beating Eintracht Frankfurt 2-1 at Deutsche Bank Park.

Marco Richter got an early opener for Hertha and Jurgen Ekkelenkamp doubled their lead just after the hour-mark.
