This morning an extra practice match was scheduled for the A core. Deinze was the guest at Basecamp and was put over the knee after goals from Jutglà, Skov Olsen and Ordóñez.
First half
A sun-drenched Basecamp provided the perfect stage for the practice game between Club and Deinze, which is in full preparation towards the start of the Challenger Pro League and started with virtually its starting lineup.
The intensity was very high from the first second. Within the first minute, Vermant was able to lay on the ball, but his shot went just wide. A few minutes later it was a winner. A flowing attack brought the ball via Skov Olsen to De Cuyper, who in turn found Jutglà in the sixteen who put the ball away in the far corner, 1 - 0 after five minutes.
For long that score did not remain. In the first real attack of Deinze, the ball was put in front of goal from the right, Burgos reacted faster than Ordóñez and outsmarted Jackers in the top corner. 1 - 1 after fifteen minutes, everything to redo.
Many tough duels and midfield play followed, until Club was able to break one out after all. On a quick counter, Nusa was able to pass the ball nicely to Skov Olsen. The Dane was able to finish in time, 2 - 1 after 25 minutes of play. That score also remained until halftime. Slight threats on both sides and a good corner by De Cuyper, which was headed just over, completed the first half.
Lineup first half: Jackers, Et-Taïbi, Ordóñez, Boyata, De Cuyper, Onyedika, Vetlesen, Vermant, Nusa, Jutglà, Skov Olsen.
Second half
At halftime, substitutions were made on both sides. Nusa, Vetlesen and Onyedika were allowed to rest. Jashari, Nielsen and Talbi were allowed to come on.
The second half started like the first with a lot of intensity. Deinze came up dangerous right away, but it was Club who could find the back of the net. Vermant headed a De Cuyper corner nicely back to the first post, Ordonez pushed the 3 - 1 against the ropes.
On the hour, coach Hayen brought four fresh forces between the lines. Et-Taïbi, De Cuyper, Skov Olsen and Ordóñez left the field. Siquet, Skóras, Zinckernagel and Yameogo were allowed to complete the match.
After all the substitutions, Deinze came up more and more dangerous. With twenty minutes to play, they broke through on the left flank. Mertens dived between two defenders and scored the tying goal. The fire was rekindled. Less than a minute after the Deinse goal, Jutglà was able to strike just outside the box, but his shot went just wide. Immediately afterwards, Mertens was able to lay on the ball, but Jackers stood firm and made the save.
At the beginning of the last quarter of an hour, Mechele and Vanaken were substituted for Boyata and Jutglà. But nothing much changed. A few more chances for Deinze and a good shot by Jashari were the last achievements of this friendly.
Club Brugge wins 3 - 2 and is now preparing for the game on Sunday, in and against Genk.
