His time in the Bundesliga was supposedly long over. Oliver Burke was unable to truly impress at either Leipzig or Werder Bremen. However, after a solid second half of the last season, in which Burke increasingly started for Werder, his Bundesliga adventure continued at Union.
The Köpenick team lured the burly forward to the East. At least since today’s game against Eintracht Frankfurt, we know why.
Against the Hessen team, the 28-year-old scored a hat trick. After the interim 2:0 in the first half (32.), Burke added goals three and four for Union shortly after the break.
Frankfurt, in particular, presented an unusually weak defensive side. Burke doesn’t care – he has finally arrived in the Bundesliga.
The score is now only 4:2 in favor of the guests. Is there still a chance? Jonathan Burkardt scored the consolation goal in the 87th minute.
