Carl Hoefkens could only be satisfied after the game against STVV. Blauw-Zwart did what it had to do and took a smooth 3-0 victory.
"I am very satisfied," said the Bruges coach. "I indicated before that three points at Anderlecht are worth as much as three points at home against Sint-Truiden. However, during the first half we didn't find the openings because we played too slow soccer. At halftime we talked about that and that's why I'm also happy with the reaction of my players. I am also very satisfied that Yaremchuk was able to get his goal and also with the action beforehand. In addition, I am also very satisfied with the schwung and intensity that the substitutes brought. I'm not really looking at the standings at the moment. We just have to keep doing our thing and keep winning our games."
Blue-Black already dropped points several times this season after a European match. "Whether I can understand that there is less focus after such a European match? No, not at all. Here today were 25,000 people who want to see soccer, who want to see 'no sweat, no glory.' Those are the basic principles of soccer at Club Brugge, so that should never be missing." (SF)
