National team midfielder Khaleem Hyland warmed up for next month's 2014 World Cup qualifiers against Guyana with a 46th minute goal which helped Racing Genk to a dramatic 5-4 victory over Club Brugge in the Belgium Jupiler League on Saturday. Hyland, who has forced his way into the Genk starting team in recent games, scored in the 46th minute to put Genk ahead 2-1 at the time. But Brugge hit back to take a 3-2 lead before further goals by Jelle Vossen and a double by Kevin De Bruyne in the 77th and 85th minutes sealed the win for Hyland's team.
"It's a great victory for us and I was pleased to be on the scoring list for my team today," Hyland said.
"Overall the game was a tough one because they came back strongly at us and we had to ensure we go into another gear to finish the match on top." "There's a lot of football to come in the coming weeks and I'm definitely looking forward to Trinidad and Tobago's next two World Cup qualifiers against Guyana. We have the first game away which is a really important one and we need to get a victory there and then go home and seal the top spot," Hyland added. Kenwyne Jones goes into action on Monday when Stoke City take on Newcastle United.
