Club Brugge dazzles Belgian press, spectacular win over Internazionale
In the illuminated San Siro‑stadium, the Belgian press saw a night they normally only see in movies: Club Brugge managed to beat Inter Milan 3-4 and left the newspapers in ecstasy.
Media praise Tresoldi’s three goals
Especially Nicolò Tresoldi received praising reactions after he found the net three times. The newspaper called his combination of an eternal smile and an ‘eye of the tiger’ mentality a special gift. The paper gave him a perfect 10/10 and dubbed him ‘San Nico’.
Coach Leko and winger Forbs in the spotlight
Coach Ivan Leko was labeled by the same newspaper as a stuntman, while Carlos Forbs was described as ‘ungraspable’. Both were praised for their attacking approach and the crucial role in the penalty and the 1‑2 assist.
The newspaper praised the German striker and emphasized that both the German and the Italian football federations show interest in Tresoldi. The paper concluded: ‘The sky is the limit’ for the young forward.

French‑speaking media followed the example. RTBF praised the efficiency of Club Brugge and the mistakes of Inter, while La Dernière Heure labeled the match as a historic event in Belgian football. Sudinfo drew a parallel with the legendary victory over AC Milan in 2003.
The newspaper called the performance a ‘miracle in Milan’ and emphasized that Club Brugge, even after the conceded goal, kept taking the initiative. Inter’s late equaliser made the final phase exciting, but changed nothing to the eventual 3‑4 victory.
