For his first at the head of Club Brugge after the departure of Philippe Clement in Monaco, Alfred Schreuder pocketed the three points against Saint-Truiden in favor of a 2-0 success in this match of the 22nd day of the championship . Charles De Ketelaere, recently elected Hope of the Year at the Golden Shoe gala for the second time in a row, punctuated a movement from Bruges after an offering to the Trudonnaire defence. A bad back pass arrived at Bas Dost and if the Dutchman could not conclude, the ball returned to ‘CDK’, who did not miss the target (1-0, 29th).
In the second half, Dost took advantage of a new approximation of the Canaries, badly positioned on a deep ball from Ruud Vormer. The Dutch striker has this time adjusted well, with a lob, a Daniel Schmidt a bit too advanced (2-0, 64th). Deforced, Bernd Hollerbach’s team could never worry the Gazelles, who calmly managed the end of the match.
At the start of the day, KV Mechelen did not show up at Den Dreef to face Oud-Heverlee Leuven following the Pro League’s refusal to postpone the match despite cases of covid within its workforce. The duel Zulte Waregem – Ostend was indeed postponed by the Pro League because eight Essevee players, including three goalkeepers, tested positive. At the start of the evening, Seraing – Union had to be stopped at half-time due to thick fog.
In the standings, the Union still remains in the lead with 47 points while the Bruges are temporarily down four lengths. Saint-Trond is 13th (24 pts).
