Club Brugge created a surprise this Wednesday against Aston Villa in the Champions League. This time, the people of Bruges were rewarded for their good performance, and the English press was complimentary.
Club Brugge played a very good match against Aston Villa. The Blauw & Zwart created the best opportunities and maintained their advantage, which it was obtained thanks to a gross error by the Birmingham club’s defense.
The English media also judged that the victory was deserved despite this “offered” goal. ‘Club Bruges were the superior team’, writes The Guardian. ‘More dynamic and more dangerous. Villa got what they deserved for their mediocre performance: a third defeat in a row, each in a different competition. All this after a bizarre moment that Mings and all the club’s supporters will want to forget as quickly as possible.”
‘”Villa and his dismayed supporters remain with a huge hangover in the beer capital of Europe”, we can read in The Sun. “Emiliano Martinez had a weak defense in front of him, while Hans Vanaken remained calm and took the penalty specialist from behind.”
On the French side, in L’Équipe, we mainly talked about Mings’ error, which is not illogical. ‘Club Brugge, which was much more enterprising, took advantage of a grotesque error by Tyrone Mings.’ The French media still noticed that the Club could have scored more.
‘The desire to attack from Nicky Hayen’s team was not rewarded beyond the converted penalty. Notably, Ferran Jutgla, Christos Tzolis and Ardon Jashari failed to get past Martinez.’
