KVDK U16 welcomed The Hague Spurs B to the Voorburg Sports field on 6 September 2025, with kick-off at 12:15pm, in an 11-a-side encounter lasting 50 minutes plus added time. The home side emerged victorious with a 2-0 scoreline, maintaining a clean sheet and demonstrating solid control throughout the match.
KVDK U16 lined up in a 4-1-2-3 formation, deploying four defenders across the backline, a single holding midfielder shielding the defence, two central midfielders tasked with linking play, and a front three leading the attack. This setup required the full-backs to balance defensive duties with supporting the wings, while the lone defensive midfielder was expected to break up opposition play and distribute effectively. The two midfielders ahead of him had the responsibility to drive forward and create chances for the three forwards, who aimed to stretch The Hague Spurs B’s defence and convert opportunities.
The starting eleven featured players positioned accordingly: a goalkeeper behind a defensive quartet, a defensive midfielder anchoring the midfield, two central midfielders operating box-to-box, and three attackers spread across the front line. The substitutes bench was unoccupied for this fixture.
The first half unfolded with both teams probing cautiously, but KVDK U16 gradually asserted dominance through their structured formation and disciplined positioning. The defensive line remained resolute, preventing The Hague Spurs B from carving out clear chances. The midfield trio controlled the tempo, with the holding midfielder intercepting passes and the two central midfielders orchestrating forward moves.
At the 25-minute mark, the referee Shorty signalled half-time, with the scoreline still goalless. The break provided KVDK U16 an opportunity to recalibrate their attacking approach and intensify pressure on their opponents.
The second half saw KVDK U16 come out with renewed vigour, capitalising on their tactical setup. The front three began to exploit spaces behind The Hague Spurs B’s defence, with the wide attackers stretching play and the central striker posing a constant threat. This approach bore fruit as KVDK U16 found the net twice, securing a comfortable lead.
Throughout the match, KVDK U16’s defensive organisation was pivotal in maintaining a clean sheet, while their midfield and attacking players combined effectively to break down The Hague Spurs B’s resistance. The referee maintained control of the game, allowing fluid play despite a modest performance.
Aiden Meintjies stood out as the player of the match, his influence felt across the pitch, contributing both defensively and offensively to KVDK U16’s success. His work rate and technical ability were instrumental in shaping the outcome.
In summary, KVDK U16’s disciplined 4-1-2-3 formation and cohesive team performance earned them a well-deserved 2-0 victory over The Hague Spurs B at the Voorburg Sports field, delighting the 100-strong crowd in attendance.
