With the victory of Ghent on Friday, Standard had to win at Cercle to stay in contact with the Buffalos in the Europe Play-offs. But the Rouches might not succeed better than a goalless draw in Venice of the North in a match where the chances were very few.
Deprived of Zinckernagel injured and Get upsuspended, Ronny Deila aligns Emond with Ohio in front while Melegoni replaces the Colombian in the middle alongside Cimirot.
Les Rouches created a great chance following a quarter-hour following a fine pass from Cimirot behind the Bruges defence. Emond appears alone in front of Majecki but the striker crosses his shot from the left too much.
Deila’s problems in midfield increased in the 31st minute when They’re done has to leave the lawn, injured. It is replaced by Canak.
The people of Bruges react and create an opportunity in turn. On a long balloon, Marcellin deviates from the head for Ueda who lob Bodart of a beautiful deviation but Bokadi clears the ball (32′).
The second half resumed with a Bruges opportunity on a corner. Marcellin cuts at the near post but his header is pushed back by Bodart (47′).
The second half is choppy and the two teams are far too messy. It was not until the 72nd to see a small possibility with a long shot from Melegoni stopped by Majecki.
The nets of the Jan Breydel Stadion will not shake this Saturday. The Cercle and the Standard leave each other back to back following a meeting that lacked quality. In the European Play-offs standings, the Rouches are second with 29 units, two points behind La Gantoise, whom they will face next Saturday. The Circle joins Westerlo at 26 points.
