Today was the second match of the competition, after beating Una 4-1 last week the team had to face EFC from Eersel. With the sun shining gently on a beautiful pitch, the kick off took place at the stroke of 11 am. From the first minute on the boys showed that they were eager to play today and put the opponent under pressure. The first chance of the match was for Mathijs who after a nice solo found the goalkeeper on his way followed by Yorbe who also just could not finish. In the 8th minute the EFC goalkeeper could only manage a shot by Mees at the cost of a corner. The dangerous corner kick by Jochem was worked into his own goal by an EFC player 0-1. Fortunately, Joel K was in the right place a little later and prevented the equalizer with a fantastic intervention. After the goalkeeper of the other team made some good saves, the 2-0 came in the 13th minute when Yorbe headed the ball into the ropes from an excellent corner by Lars. Three minutes later it was another goal, through a nice combination between Lars and Mathijs the ball ended up with Achraf who shot beautifully into the net 0-3. A minute later there was another one in the net, from a corner by Jochem Yorbe scored the 0-4. It seemed that this goal had shattered all remaining illusions of the home team because now it became very one-way traffic. Moments later it was Niels who started an attack like no other. He intercepted an attack and delivered the ball to Mathijs who sent a nice cross to Yorbe who left the goalkeeper defenseless for the fifth time. Again Mathijs provided the assist for the 0-6, this time Achraf was the goal scorer. The half time score was set by Mathijs himself who crowned a nice solo with a goal 0-7.
With the instruction from trainer Mart to keep going the second half started. The boys gladly complied and within 6 minutes there were already double figures on the scoreboard. From a free kick Jochem first scored the 0-8 and after a good move by Achraf he coolly scored the ninth as well. The 0-10 was scored by Yorbe who rounded off a fantastic move. Again Yorbe was at the end of a great attack, subtly tapping in the 0-11 after a great assist from Achraf. Still the hunger for more goals was not satisfied. After a good return from Jochem, Yorbe scored again. Did opposing team EFC not get a chance at all, well ... not really, and if they crossed the center line once in a while, Niels was there to kill off any attacking intentions. The 0-13 was scored by Lars who tapped in a nice combination of Mathijs and Jochem in a very controlled way. After the reporter had refreshed the pen with new ink, plenty of new goals could be scored. The 0-14 and 0-15 were shot in by Jochem after first Mathijs and then Mees rewarded a nice action with an even nicer assist. Mathijs also beat the goalkeeper after a great solo past 3-4 men to score the sixteenth goal. The 0-17 came from Mees who beat a nice pass from Yorbe. It was still not over with the goals and the supporters, who came in large numbers, could clap their hands warmly in celebration. Lars once again sent a number of opponents into the woods and could play Mees who in turn saw Mathijs standing free who did not hesitate for a moment and shot 0-18. Yorbe then made it 0-19 with a great drive into the crossbar. The final word was for Lars who hit a nice shot into the corner to make it 0-20. If we continue to play with such effort and togetherness, the tires of the flat cart can be inflated, right?
