It was not entertaining TOP Oss – FC Eindhoven. Both teams started well Kitchen Champion Divisionmatch, but after about a quarter of a match the spectacular was over. It became a festival of errors, in which Eindhoven via Jort van der Sande won the victory.
TOP Oss – FC Eindhoven 0-1
The match between TOP Oss and FC Eindhoven started very promising. Both teams had chances for the opening goal, but the ball was not wanted (and was not allowed). Referee Robin Hensgens rejected a goal from Eindhoven player Maarten Peijnenburg after three minutes of play, who allegedly committed a foul on Oss keeper Bo Geens. However, there was little to worry about, so the home team got away well.
In the second half, both teams continued to play very poorly. Ultimately, Van der Sande became the match winner: with about fifteen minutes to play, he shot the 0-1 behind Geens. Incidentally, it was one of the few balls that the Eindhoven striker managed to hit well, he almost always handed the rest to the opponent.
Helmond Sport – Excelsior 2-1
There was great relief at Helmond Sport after the final whistle in the SolarUnie Stadium. For the first time in over a year, it won again in its own stadium. After 27 minutes of play, Jelle Goselink put the home team ahead against Excelsior, which failed to impress.
In the second half, Excelsior got into the game a bit better, but it did fall 2-0. Jeff Stans made the second for Helmond Sport against his old team. Excelsior went in search of the tying goal in the remainder of the second act, but was unable to make a fist. It was only well into injury time that the club from Rotterdam came back into the game via Elías Már Ómarsson, but his goal came too late to drag out another draw.
