Queretaro at Yankee Stadium. “We know Jovan is a super talented player with vast European experience, we are all disappointed with his lack of playing time but know the level he is capable of reaching,” said Sporting Director David Lee. “At this moment we believe that allowing Jovan to be exposed to play a key part in a competitive environment in Belgium’s top division will help further his development. We look forward to following Jovan in Belgium the rest of the season and wish him all the best.” Mijatovic returns to Europe where prior to New York City the forward had amassed 95 professional career appearances most recently with Serbian club Red Star Belgrade, in addition to UEFA Champions League and Europa League experience. “I would like to thank everyone at New York City for welcoming me to the club last season. Although we didn’t have the season I would have wanted, I am excited at the opportunity to return to Europe and continue to work on my craft,” said forward Jovan Mijatović. “I would like to thank the coaches, staff and my teammates; I wish them all the best as they start the new season.” On the international stage, Mijatović was called up by Serbia’s U-21 while with New York City. The forward made four appearances and provided a goal and assist between a friendly and UEFA Euro U-21 Championship qualifying.

Belgian Lager may seem all too easy but there’s an art to serving up Heverlee’s celebrated ‘perfected pint’ … and appreciation is deepened when you find out what lies behind this great heritage-based beer much to the admiration of bartenders and licensed trade representatives from across Northern Ireland was Heverlee’s own master brewer Joris Brams.  There is no man better qualified to present Heverlee Heverlee is derived from a centuries-old recipe originally used by medieval monks at the Abbey of the order of Premontre just outside Joris’s hometown of Leuven providing refreshment almost exclusively destined for the monks and those who laboured on the Abbey lands.  Brewing stopped around 1500/1600 and the recipe was long forgotten until Joris began his research He was so impressed at the recipe he unearthed for a traditional yet hugely distinctive Belgian Pils that he revived both the recipe and skills the ultra-smooth Heverlee of today was born more traditional brewing process than the bigger Belgian brands to ensure a distinctive original Pils bitterness within its complex taste characteristics Today Heverlee can proudly claim that it is once again deliciously brewed with ingredients and methods with roots dating back to Medieval times maize and fresh water combine to create a light Heverlee is served in a chalice glass designed to preserve the beer head and concentrate its flavours the foam is traditionally sliced off with a knife perhaps worryingly known as ‘beheading’ protecting the liquid underneath from exposure to the air and maintaining the head’s bitter aromas But there’s even more to pouring what Heverlee has dubbed its ‘perfected pour’ and Joris has created a six step programme to guide bartenders through the exacting process.  Delivering perfection with every pour ensures that the customer always receives the beer as it should be but it also reminds the bartender that this is a product like no other: worthy of respectful handling The Heverlee logo features the Abbey’s Latin motto ‘Ne Quid Nimis’ reflecting a philosophy of ‘life in balance’ The literal English translation of the Latin phrase is ‘nothing in excess’ … which is

on the limited edition chalice glass is meant to symbolise strength and character. The design is consistent with the style for which DZIA is renowned – the Belgian street artist has earned a reputation for his unique depictions of animals including abstract and intricately detailed murals of foxes, cats, insects, squirrels, eagles, rhinos and horses. He has also been commissioned by brands such as Eastpak and Converse in the past. Heverlee is the fastest growing world lager in the Scottish on-trade. The new, limited-edition chalice glass, which has been redesigned for the first time since Heverlee launched in 2013, has been introduced to support publicans stocking the Belgian lager through increased and refreshed brand visibility. Heverlee brand manager Rhona Fyfe said: “In Belgian bars, there are eye-catching glass designs from dozens of brewers and we’re thrilled to be introducing our very own limited-edition pint glass to the UK. “DZIA’s Belgian lion looks incredible, we’re sure our customers and Heverlee drinkers will agree. Street art has long been part of Heverlee’s identity through our experiential campaigns, so to bring it direct to our customers is something we’re really excited about.” In Belgium, limited-edition glassware is regularly used to deliver brand standout – something Heverlee is looking to replicate in the Scottish market by offering DZIA collaboration glassware to new and selected existing on-trade customers.

against Oud-Heverlee Leuven Blauw-Zwart went behind after a goal by Pletinckx but put the lopsided situation right thanks to an owngoal by Leysen a clever free kick by Vanaken and a goal by Meijer Ronny Deila made four changes to the team that went down against Molde on Thursday while Spileers and Skóraś also disappeared from the starting lineup Skov Olsen and Zinckernagel came in their place Simon Mignolet had not yet recovered and so Nordin Jackers was allowed to start in goal for the third time in a row the Bridge Kings claimed possession of the ball and also created the first threat A free kick by Skov Olsen went over the bar and goalkeeper Leysen saved shots by Nielsen and Zinckernagel The visitors set up a solid organization and meanwhile lurked on the counter Thus Jackers had to push a deviated shot by Schrijvers over the bar while another shot by Schrijvers and a header by Maziz were not framed Club was clearly in control but was not overflowing with confidence and suffered another blow on the half-hour when Ewoud Pletinckx headed in a corner kick but a header by Jutglà collided back into the field via the far post Tobe Leysen misjudged a Bjorn Meijer cross and pushed the ball into his own goal On the stroke of half-time Skov Olsen also threatened Michał Skóraś was allowed to fill in and the Pole immediately brought more cutting edge In his first action he was pushed to the ground on the edge of the sixteen meters The subsequent free kick was deliciously kicked in by Hans Vanaken Leysen cleared a corner kick from Skov Olsen and after a scrimmage the ball ended up at Bjorn Meijer Jupiler Pro League – Matchday 29Attendance: 25.000 – Jan BreydelstadionReferee: Jan BoterbergClub Brugge: Nordin Jackers – Denis Odoi (46’ Kyriani Sabbe) Hans Vanaken –
