Watch the highlights from their historic 2022 clash to see Union SG's clinical finishing in action:
In their first meeting, Malmö took an early lead through Joseph Ceesay, but Union SG roared back. A back-and-forth battle saw goals from Christian Burgess and Teddy Teuma, but it was Victor Boniface —who would go on to be the tournament's joint top scorer—who secured a dramatic 3-2 victory for the Belgians.
The heart of the Union midfield, Teuma scored in both 2022 meetings and was the highest-rated player in their second encounter with an 8.8 rating.
A constant threat for the Swedish side, he found the net in the first 3-2 thriller but was kept quiet in the second leg.
The return leg at the Eleda Stadion in Malmö was less competitive. Union SG captain Teddy Teuma opened the scoring just 10 minutes in, and Lazare Amani doubled the lead before halftime. Malmö, led by coach Åge Hareide, could not find a breakthrough, resulting in a 2-0 win for the visitors that cemented USG's status as the group's dominant force. Key Players in the Rivalry
