· Yahoo Sports
Union Berlin’s social media department caused a stir on Sunday after the draw against St. Pauli. The reason: the Köpenick club took a swipe at VfL Wolfsburg after drawing 1-1 with the Hamburg side.

“Sometimes you have to look at the positives...” Union wrote on X, among other things. They also shared a meme from the US series The Office. It showed two men (boss and employee) shaking hands. Above them it read: “Wolfsburg relegation” (left), “Gift St. Pauli a point” (right).
The photo was also posted on Instagram. But apparently not everyone at the club shared that sense of humor. Shortly afterward, both posts were deleted.
At the same time, Union themselves are still fighting to stay in the Bundesliga. With six matchdays left, their lead over St. Pauli, who now occupy the relegation playoff spot, is only seven points.
So it was no surprise that there were also negative reactions to Union’s post on social media.
“I look at the table, the remaining matchdays, and who still has to play whom. St. Pauli have Bayern next week, and we want to get a positive result in Heidenheim — and then we’d already be one step closer to our goal. We’re in a very good position,” Steffen Baumgart told DAZN after the final whistle. The Union coach also does not see his team as safe yet in their battle to avoid relegation.
