Club Brugge manager Clement heaps praise on Ghanaian winger Sowah after impressive PSG display

Club Brugge boss Philippe Clement lauded Ghanaian winger Kamal Sowah following his impressive display against Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.

Sowah lasted for 92 minutes of action as the Belgian giants came from behind to draw 1-1 with Mauricio Pochettino’s side.

Ander Herrera gave PSG the lead in the 15th minute before captain Hans Vanaken bagged the equaliser in the 27th minute in the Group A matchday one tie at Jan Breydel Stadium.

“Lang, De Ketelaere, Vanaken, Sowah, … I really should name every player. You can only get a result like tonight’s if everyone is fully focused and committed and that was the case,” Clement said after the game, his club’s official website reported.

“They’ve played a wonderful game, both physically and mentally. We started off well but conceded a goal after 15 minutes play. But then, the reaction from my players is what really satisfies me as a coach.

“This is our football philosophy. This is how we want to play every game. If I have to be critical, then I would say that we need a bit more efficiency.

“The other teams in the group will not be taken by surprise by us, we still have five finals to play and we need to be ready. I don’t think we should limit the dreams of the players. Let them dream of what could be and we’ll see where we end in this group. But this was a brilliant performance from our part.”

The result has left Brugge third on the table behind leaders Manchester City, who beat German side RB Leipzig 6-3 in the other group game, and PSG.

Sowah joined the Belgian side on a four-year contract from English outfit Leicester City last month.
