The Malta international notched his 10th goal of the season after converting Union's second goal from the penalty spot.
Union's first goal was grabbed by forward Dante Vanzeir after being teed up by Teuma - his 12th assist in the 2022/2023 campaign.

Union's next game is on Wednesday when they travel to Cercle Brugge.
