League Play-Off

Kortwoude Stadion
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Edgard Krommert made the kick off which started today's match. 3 minutes into the match, Edgard Krommert notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of Kortwoude HC's Reinhard de Vries. Reinhard de Vries was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. An unexpectedly hard shot by Edgard Krommert in the 6th minute of play forced Kortwoude HC's goalkeeper Reinhard de Vries to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Otto Molenaar fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 10th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Kristof Stubbe having to interfere. If Bennie Ieberts had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Otto Molenaar recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 13th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After having played for 14 minutes, Bennie Ieberts managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Kortwoude HC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Bennie Ieberts was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 16th minute Otto Molenaar shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Kristof Stubbe saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When Edgard Krommert came up free with the goalie in the 27th minute, the Dwarsdiep fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Edgard Krommert couldn't finish the play. Bennie Ieberts blasted a shot towards the goal in the 31st minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Kristof Stubbe having to make a save. After a defensive mix-up in Dwarsdiep's zone, Bennie Ieberts stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Kristof Stubbe came out of the goal and Bennie Ieberts tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Kortwoude HC's Reinhard de Vries played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Edgard Krommert in the 42nd minute of play. The score stood at 1-1 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

Otto Molenaar took the ball and in the 52 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Kristof Stubbe. Kristof Stubbe dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 2-1. 56 minutes into the match, Ron Reitsema had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Reinhard de Vries. Kortwoude HC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Ron Reitsema was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-2. If Ron Reitsema had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 60th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. When the match clock showed 63 minutes, the score became 3-2 when Otto Molenaar sped through Dwarsdiep's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Kristof Stubbe. Kristof Stubbe showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Otto Molenaar in the 67th minute of the match. Ron Reitsema fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 68th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Reinhard de Vries having to interfere. Otto Molenaar's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Kristof Stubbe read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 71st minute of play. Otto Molenaar sent away a hard shot on goal in the 74th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 3-3 became the score in the 84th minute when Edgard Krommert elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. Kortwoude HC's Reinhard de Vries played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Edgard Krommert in the 90th minute of play. Edgard Krommert received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 92nd minute. Reinhard de Vries tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After a defensive mix-up in Dwarsdiep's zone, Otto Molenaar stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Kristof Stubbe came out of the goal and Otto Molenaar tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Neither set of supporters seemed pleased with the draw, but both teams had played equally well today.
