"Weird that suddenly there is so much reaction"

INTERVIEWS Inevitably Hein Vanhaezebrouck got the question what he thinks of the referees last Sunday against Club Brugge. At first the coach did not want to say too much about it, although he was asking himself a few things.


"A lot of things have been said and written in the past few days, so I will not give any comments", Vanhaezebrouck replied, "Although I think that if you say things right after the game, you should not deny it afterwards that you said something like that. Especially if those things were registered by different cameras and microphones. "

Perhaps the coach here was referring to the insinuation of Bart Verhaeghe that Anderlecht would bribe the referees or that the refs would favor purple-white. The day after those statements, Vincent Mannaert minimizes the words of his chairman.

"During the whole season there have been problems with the referees or / and with the Video Assistent Referee, but Bruges never complained because it was always in their advantage." added Vanhaezebrouck.
