What happened. Schalke earned their first Bundesliga win of the season with a 3-1 victory at Union Berlin. Robin Gosens volleyed in off the post against his former club, Adil Aouchiche doubled the lead, and Union's late fightback fell short.

• Both sides entered Matchday 3 with only one point from their opening two games.
• Gosens opened the scoring in the 25th minute after a half-cleared cross.
• Union goalkeeper Frederik Rønnow denied Aouchiche and Adamu before the break.

Schalke will look to build on their first win, while Union remain without a victory this season.
