Jelle Vossen will remember the match against Eupen for a long time, because the Zulte Waregem attacker scored his 150th goal in the Jupiler Pro League from the spot. “That is a milestone,” said the 32-year-old striker.
“I’m very proud of it and I have great feelings about tonight. I knew I needed another one and I’m glad it worked today.”
He almost reached the milestone in a very special way, but his attempt from the halfway line was saved. “Of course that would have been even better than that penalty a little later.”
“It would have been fantastic to score such a goal as number 150, but nobody will remember that later. I saw Nurudeen standing high and I hit the ball perfectly. I was really convinced that the ball would go in. “
In 2009 Vossen scored his first league goal. “I’ve been around for a while, but it’s a great list to be in. There aren’t many players who can say that. It is also my intention to add a few more.”
