00:0011 points was just about good enough for Club Brugge to creep into the qualifying positions
00:08in last year's league phase. 12 months on.
00:12They can...
00:24One more.
00:28Vetlesen.
00:31Nice work from the attacking midfielder, enforcing the first save of the game from Tamir and Anabiyakov.
00:37And certainly in the last five matches should give Kyra some optimism that they could get a goal.
00:46It's Diakon.
00:47Oh! Gets the post!
00:52A real let-off for Kyra.
00:55Stroke of luck for the home side.
01:02They rode their luck last time out against Olympiacos.
01:06Vetlesen to deliver the free kick for Club Brugge.
01:10They haven't created all that much in the opening half-hour here.
01:14That was a disappointing delivery from the attacking midfielder.
01:18He'll try again. That's a bit better.
01:21Flying punch from the goalkeeper and Stankovic smashes in the rebound.
01:25Club Brugge have their goal with 32 minutes on the clock.
01:29A vital one for the Belgians.
01:36Scored by Stankovic.
01:41But goalkeeper Tamir and Anabiyakov will be disappointed with the part that he played in it.
01:47The double-fisted punch falling straight to an opponent.
01:58And Alexander Stankovic with the accuracy to pop that first-time finish into an unguarded net.
02:05They've struggled to make the breakthrough, Club Brugge.
02:10But now they've got their goal.
02:12Kyra Almaty 0, Club Brugge 1.
02:15Manning Diakon.
02:18Vermount waiting in the middle.
02:22Might fall for Forbes here.
02:24He was tempting the assistance flag.
02:27Play continues.
02:29Sabé's cross.
02:31Says with the header.
02:33And the finish.
02:35Hans van Aken makes it two.
02:36The scoreline somewhat flattering Ivan Leiko's team.
02:46But they have breathing space in Astana.
02:53The Belgians' additional Champions League pedigree has been evident.
02:57And now they have daylight between them and their hosts.
03:06Sabé's delivery.
03:08Joaquin Says with the little knockdown.
03:12And Hans van Aken.
03:19Forbes.
03:21It could so easily have been three in the final seconds of the first half.
03:28Their best chance of securing additional points in their first ever Champions League participation.
03:35With a two-goal deficit to make up.
03:38And of course you can add another 5,000 to that from the travel to and from Astana.
03:47It's Forbes.
03:49Great save for Anna Byarkov.
03:50And that's another opportunity for Brugge to extend their advantage.
04:00Dan Glazer's heavy touch.
04:02Almost the perfect pass for Forbes.
04:04And Stankovic.
04:05Yacon with four in the middle.
04:18Once again he beats his man with ease.
04:21Yacon to Forbes.
04:22It's over the top.
04:23And Vermann gets the goal.
04:24It had been coming.
04:25Club Brugge have dominated since the break.
04:26And Romeo Vermann has made victory certain.
04:27No surprise that it was Mamadou Diakon providing the supply line.
04:30down the left.
04:32He has given his full-back to the left.
04:34He has given his full-back to the right.
04:35Then he desires.
04:37And Mamadou Diakon.
04:39And Mamadou Diakon, continues to beat his marker with ease.
04:41And Vermann gets the goal.
04:43It had been coming.
04:44Klubbrugge have dominated since the break and Romeo Vermaant has made victory certain.
04:52No surprise that it was Mamadou Diakon providing the supply line down the left.
04:58He has given his full-back a torrid time tonight.
05:01Diakon easing away from Tepalov and then putting it on a plate for Vermaant who scores his 10th goal of the season in all competitions.
05:25Kyra Olmati have been running out of energy in this second half.
05:31And the psychological blow of this third goal will almost certainly finish them off.
05:37And he's taken that purple patch into the Champions League two now.
05:48Kyra with 15 minutes to go.
05:55Sandra to Vanakon.
05:58Floats one and it's four.
06:01Brandon Mekkela up from the back.
06:06And extending Klubbrugge's lead.
06:11Kyra Olmati out on their feet now.
06:15Exhausted.
06:17And well beaten.
06:18And it is the defensive veteran that more than likely completes the scoring tonight.
06:32He's played for them his entire career.
06:36Ideal figure to close out what was a very important win tonight.
06:40Vanakon picking it, man.
06:41It's a second-half substitute.
06:45It's a second-half substitute.
06:48Abish.
06:50Gromyko.
06:51That's not a bad cross, but a touch too high for everyone in the middle.
06:56Oh, it's there.
06:57Oh, it's there.
06:59Oh, he lets Sadebekov get the goal for Kyra.
07:05And their supporters have something to cheer at last.
07:11The consolation goal coming in the game's final seconds.
07:23Quite some strike as well by Sadebekov.
07:26That won't make a huge difference to the league phase table.
07:34But it's a moment that the 23-year-old midfielder will remember all his professional life.
07:41Superb strike.
07:43In off the post with Nordin Jarkas.
07:46Nowhere near it.
07:52Kyra restore a touch of respectability to the scoreline at the end.
07:56With this the best goal of the night.
08:01But they have been.
08:02And his goal, the final kick of the match.
08:09It's nice that the supporters had something to get excited about right at the end.
