Meijer, who switched from FC Groningen to the Belgian champion last summer, was allowed to start in the base. He even set a record. He is in fact the youngest Dutchman to have been named in the Champions League since the 2003-2004 season, the first year that the data agency started recording these statistics. The other match in the group was between Bayer Leverkus and Atlético Madrid and ended in a goalless draw (0-0). Because Sporting surprisingly won against Tottenham Hotspur earlier in the evening, this victory of Club Brugge is welcome for the Dutch coefficients.
Group D
In group D, Sporting Portugal beat Tottenham Hotspur (2-0) earlier in the evening in Lisbon. The Portuguese emerge after two duels without losing points. In France, Olympique Marseille and Eintracht Frankfurt faced each other later in the evening and the Germans started off with the three points. The De De De Jesper Lindstrome became match winner shortly before half time. Marseille had enough opportunities, but failed to succeed and so there was enough to secure the victory.
Frankfurt is therefore on three points, and is therefore equal to the Spurs of Antonio Conte. However, due to the better goal difference, the English are second and the Germans in the group. For Marseille, wintering in the Champions League with two defeats will be a difficult story. The French will have to work hard in the upcoming diptych with Sporting to make something of the European season.
