The 1980s did not start particularly well for Union, however. They lost their most promising talent and top goal scorer in the national leaguer with 26 goals at the age of 20, Robby Langers, and were forced to rely on the most loyal of loyal players for their team. Their fortunes soon changed, and with the wins of the Luxembourg Cup in '86,'89 and '91, they were able to bring a new dynamic into the team. This allowed them to achieve an extraordinary feat: winning the Championship three years in a row – 1990, 91 and 92. Union would be the last team from the Capital to win a title in the 20th Century, with its Cup win in 1996. It would be the last title for a Luxembourg City team for over 20 years.
