Club Brugge wins the match against Molde and qualifies for the quarter-finals of the Conference League

Club Brugge kept their (and coach Ronny Deila's) season alive. Blauw-zwart won the match he had to win against Molde to avoid a complete crisis. Andreas Skov Olsen completely overturned the deficit from the first leg with two goals, and Michal Skouras ensured certainty. The club is in a good position in the quarter-finals of the Conference League.

Match of the year. A decisive match to save the season. Do or die for Ronnie Dilla.

The announcements were clear, as Club Brugge appeared at the beginning of the match under intense pressure after the painful defeat against Molde. Incidentally, in a half-empty Jan Breydel Stadium, with barely 13,000 tickets sold, the XII did not give up.

Despite the great risks, there was no doubt that a stampede would occur in Bruges. Club was on the slow train and in Molde's team, who mainly defended and thought of saving time, they managed to escape easily, much to their surprise.

The club came close to scoring after only half an hour. Mayer fired the ball over Gutgla's head and saw his head hit the post. Fifteen minutes later, Vettelsen also came close to making it 1-0 after a pass from Skov Olsen, but the Norwegian was unable to clear the ball past goalkeeper Petersen from close range.

In extra time, Andreas Skov Olsen made the substitution. The Dane himself set up a smart attack, which Meier played perfectly inside the penalty area and finished the ball ice-cold.

Immediately after the break, Skov Olsen scored again. After a clever combination between Vanakken and Jutgla, the Dane scored 2-0 from just outside the 16 and into the far corner. The club was suddenly on its way to the quarter-finals.

One goal from Molde was enough to disrupt that trajectory once again, but the Norwegians never seemed to still believe in it. However, it came as a shock to the club when Eriksen looked dangerous in a free-kick from the visitors, but was unable to get to the ball.

Match winner Skov Olsen was injured midway through the second half. His replacement Skouras had only been on the field for three minutes when he was given the all-clear. Vanaken released it, put Hagelskjær at bay, and with his left hand he also caught Pietersen. 3-0 and more and out to Molde.

Klopp almost scored the fourth goal, but Thiago was unable to get rid of his doubts. Instead of giving Noosa or Vanaken a 4-0 lead, the Brazilian striker shot over the bar.

It made no difference, as the club reached the quarter-finals of the Conference League with a convincing 3-0 win.
