Verbruggen's performance unique in 35 years of European club football

OTHER Not conceding a goal during a penalty series after a European match. Bart Verbruggen did it tonight and that is quite an achievement. As many as 35 years ago, statistics agency OPTA knows.


So a strong performance from Verbruggen, who has been doing tremendously well since he secured a starting place in late December. Rest assured that his performance yesterday will go around Europe and make him rise by a dot in the notebooks of the big clubs.
