Cercle Brugge 2-0 Hearts: What Critchley said

Hearts manager Neil Critchley: "It was a hugely disappointing result.

"Nothing in the first half, not many chances at either end really, fine margins.

"We conceded a poor goal in the first half and then I thought in the second half we were better, some good moments we didn't take and things not quite going for us. It's frustrating with a capital f I think.

"First goals are pivotal in any game and at the moment we're not getting them. We were wasteful on the ball in the first half.

"You rely on the ability and quality of the players you've got and at the moment we need those players to step up."
