00:00Full time here in Belgium, Cercle Brugge 2, Haps 0. A disappointing end for the Scottish
00:09side as Warren Scheitel's penalty late in the game became a frustration. Cercle were
00:15one up at the time, Haps made an equaliser and won a penalty kick and Schenkelen sent
00:19it over the bar. It wasn't a great performance overall from Haps and some of the fans at
00:23the end made their feelings known. Cercle then scored their late second goal to wrap
00:27the game up in this conference league tie. They eventually got away from the Tyncastle
00:32side, Neil Critchley will be disappointed with their performance on the night. Cercle
00:36weren't brilliant but did enough to score twice, they were more clinical up front than
00:39Haps. And now this means Haps would win with two more games and the chance to get three
00:44points that they need to reach the knockout playoff round. That comes in February, they've
00:48got two games left, one away at FC Copenhagen in Denmark and one at home to the Moldovan
00:54side, Petro Cup. More than 3,000 Haps fans inside the stadium, they made plenty of noise
00:59but they were hugely disappointed at full time and met their frustration as the players
01:04waited on the park to thank the fans for travelling over here. Now they head back to Edinburgh
01:09to play Aberdeen on Sunday and there's an awful lot of improvement needed.
