Tau, who completed his season-long loan from English Premier League outfit Brighton and Hove Albion last week, was in superb form for the Blue and Black as they romped to a 6-0 victory over St. Truiden in the Belgium First Division A.

The pint-sized Bafana Bafana forward scored his first goal in his first match for his new employers and his side’s fourth goal as Brugge consolidated their top of the standings with two wins from two matches.

Mosimane, who was behind Tau’s prominent rise during his stay at Chloorkop, paid tribute to his former protege, especially for his ‘cocky’ goal.

“That’s typical of Tau’s goals… cocky. Unbelievable,” Mosimane told KickOff.com.

“Even the way he goes inside. Nice. That’s how he used to play with Keagan [Dolly] and Khama [Billiat]. We taught them how to break the line. It’s a good goal, good finish.”

The Masandawana mentor also expressed his delight for the pacey forward following his move from the second division last season to top-flight football.

“Brugge is a big club. He is in the right place now even though myself I needed a little bit more but it’s better than what he was doing last year. He just wasted a year. I am happy where he is now,” added Mosimane.
