BRUSSELS (Reuters) - A 4-0 home defeat in the Champions League by Paris St Germain on Wednesday did little to dampen the mood of new Anderlecht coach Hein Vanhaezebrouck, who claimed his side played a near perfect first half and could take a lot of positives out of the game.

"With this performance we have shown progress," said Vanhaezebrouck, after only his second game in charge as Anderlecht struggle with form this season.
