Uwe Neuhaus could not help but Smile. “He has the name of a double, he’s Uwe Uwe is”, boomed a half hour before the start of the game from the stadium speakers and it required no further explanation, that the song was dedicated to the years of Berlin’s Trainer.

The Berlin season are now across in the last 19 home games in the Second League unbeaten and remain the table the second. Already on Saturday, 1 may.

As Yabo ran alone towards the goal, decided by the Referees on Offside – a very close decision. Ten minutes before the end to put Yabo again to Sprint, his shot grazed the outside network. Union wobbled, had in the closing stages by Abdullahi but even still a good Chance.
