Ruud Vormer: "We knew how to seize our moments"

Club achieved a smooth victory against Marc Brys' Oud-Heverlee-Leuven. It was another fine, mature performance by Blauw-Zwart, who thus continued their winning streak in the Jupiler Pro League. Captain Ruud Vormer expressed satisfaction after the match, including with his penalty goal.

"Whether this was a victory on routine? A little bit, yes. We knew how to seize our moments. Handsome how we showed this again. We didn't give anything away either. During the first half we came under pressure at times, but we came out well. A very good performance from us, we are on the right track. I was also able to score. Usually Hansie takes the penalty kicks, but now it was up to me. I'm glad he was in it. Whether there was a message in the celebration? No way, I just wanted to imitate Mata, effe fun."

Ignace Van der Brempt scored his first for Club after a fine individual action. As such, the Bruges captain had nothing but praise for him. "Ignace is a bit of a Meunier type, always going, keeping an overview and in the box. I see that boy doing his best every day. Very nice for him."

Thursday awaits the important return match against Dynamo Kiev. "This was a nice dress rehearsal," Vormer continued. "It will be a special match. We're going to do our thing, nice." The big question is whether the Corona absentees will be there again. "Should those guys be back, that would be nice for us. Hopefully they will be there. Without them you do miss some quality of course." (EV)
