Union Berlin and Stuttgart Make Bundesliga History with 4-4 First-Half Thriller
In a historic Bundesliga clash on Saturday, Union Berlin and Stuttgart made headlines by scoring a total of eight goals in the first half, setting a new record for the league.
The game started with Union taking an early lead with goals from Andrej Ilic and Diogo Leite, both coming from set-piece situations. However, Stuttgart quickly responded with Deniz Undav and Enzo Millot finding the back of the net to level the score at 2-2.
Union managed to regain the lead with an impressive long-range strike from Leopold Querfeld, but Stuttgart fought back with goals from Jeff Chabot and Chris Fuehrich, scoring two goals in quick succession. The first half ended with Ilic scoring his second goal in stoppage time, tying the game at 4-4.
The Bundesliga has witnessed high-scoring matches in the past, with the record for the most goals scored in a single half set in 1982 when Borussia Dortmund defeated Arminia Bielefeld 11-1, with ten of those goals coming in the second half.
