The thrashing against Gimnasia de Mendoza appears, for now, as the great exception in a tournament start that is far from what Unión had imagined. In four matches played, the team has accumulated only four points out of a possible twelve, with an effectiveness of 33.3%, resulting from one victory, one draw, and two losses.
From a numerical standpoint, the Tatengue scored five goals and conceded three, although this statistic is quickly put into perspective when observing that four of those goals came in a single match. Before and after that perfect night on April 15th, the team struggled to create clear chances, maintain intensity, and find continuity in their play.
The losses away from Santa Fe, combined with the draw at home, have marked an irregular path, with performances that left more questions than answers. The main concern is the collective performance, especially after the lackluster display against Central Córdoba in Santiago del Estero, where Unión appeared lackluster, without depth or offensive weight, and ended up paying dearly for a defensive error.
The coaching staff knows that the margin for error is increasingly smaller and that the upcoming match against San Lorenzo will be crucial to start turning around this start.
