Mats Rits decided the league match against Charleroi with two clever goals. With this win, Blauw-Zwart approaches to within nine points of leader Union.

"We kept control the whole game and created enough chances. They were in block in the first half. They let us come, Nsoki and Mata got space. As long as we didn't score the goal there, then it remained difficult. After that 2-0, we had to make a third and a fourth. In the last ten minutes we had a few more chances against, fortunately no goal came from those. Simon saved us well there, but we have to make the game dead earlier. We knew the results of the rest, but we have to look at ourselves. Union lost points now, we lost last week. This was an important win today."

"My first goal was the best, the ball collided and I grabbed it with my left. They are two similar goals because I infiltrate from far. This is the first time I scored two goals in one match for Club."

Meanwhile, coach Schreuder continues to work to get the team on point. "It is good that we are going from week to week to grind in the coach's emphases. We plan to do that in the coming weeks. We are a team that wants to play dominant ball possession soccer. At times you have to go forward quickly and that's what goals are, from the switch. I like to play in position eight, I played the most matches of my career there. It's always nice to infiltrate, box-to-box. That's where I like to see me, it's my quality as a player. My best position is central. Where I'm needed there I do my best."

Ruud Vormer remained on the bench, Odoi took his place. "Ruud will still mean a lot to Club. He is on and off the pitch our captain and supports the group. Dennis Odoi is a good player and he is very versatile. He plays with experience and aggression. I didn't remember him like that from his time in Belgium, you can see he spent time in England. We can use him." (KN)
