Mathew Ryan took time out from Albion's Premier League survival fight to visit one of his former clubs.

The Australian keeper was a special guest for Brugge's 4-4 draw with Standard Liege yesterday at the Jan Breydel Stadium.

He received a warm ovation from fans on the pitch before kick-off.

Brugge were Ryan's first club abroad. He spent two years with them after leaving Australia.

Ryan will maintain his ever-present Premier League record for Albion at Burnley on Saturday.
