Ryan keeps another clean sheet as Club Brugge keep pressure on Liege

Mat Ryan produced yet another clean sheet as Club Brugge kept up the pressure on Belgian Pro League leaders Standard Liege on the weekend.

The 21-year old Australian goalkeeper, who joined Brugge from Central Coast Mariners in May 2013, kept his 11th shutout of the campaign as the Blauw-Zwart defeated Cercle Brugge 2-0 in the Bruges derby.

Thomas Meunier netted a second-half double as Club Brugge cut Liege's lead at the top of the table to just four points following their 1-1 draw with Waasland-Beveren.

Ryan's Brugge are now sitting on 63 points from 30 league fixtures, six clear of third-placed Anderlecht and 10 ahead of Zulte-Waregem in fourth.
