DECUIPE
Spectators: 44 (Terracing: 34, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Kurt van der Laan made the kick off which started today's match. 3 minutes into the match, Kurt van der Laan notched a goal, 1-0, to the right of The Underdogs's Jan Wessel. Jan Wessel was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. When The Underdogs's Dolf Schoonderwoerd in the 8th minute got a chance for a shot 8th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie.

In the 9th minute Dolf Schoonderwoerd shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ralph Roeles saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Zebastian Bergfeldt struck a weak shot in the 14th minute. Jan Wessel didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal.
