Kampong beats Den Bosch, Oranje-Rood takes point

Kampong - Den Bosch 4-2
After a run of 48 games without a win over Den Bosch, Kampong has broken the spell. The Utrecht team recorded its first victory over Den Bosch since 6 May 2001. At the Klapperboom it became 4-2. Sosha Benninga was the Utrecht side's star with three goals. Kampong's other goal was scored by Guusje Moes. Joosje Burg and Frédérique Matla scored for Den Bosch. For Matla, it was her 198th goal in the Tulp Hoofdklasse. With the defeat, Den Bosch failed to win for the third time in an away match. The team remains fourth in the league table. Kampong, which recorded its third win in a row, remains on the trail of leaders SCHC. It is three points behind.

Oranje-Rood - Hurley 2-2
Oranje-Rood still managed a point in the bottom clash against Hurley. The Eindhoven team repaired a 2-0 deficit in the closing stages. Youth player Suus Meininger gave Hurley the lead early on after a poor play-in pass by Oranje-Rood. The visitors doubled their lead after half-time through a penalty stroke by Sanne Caarls. Oranje-Rood, playing without top scorer Charlotte Schrijvers and goalkeeper Lucie Ehrmann, began their comeback when Madelief de Beer cashed in a penalty stroke eight minutes before time. Six minutes later, Thirsa Kho pushed in the equaliser from a penalty corner. Although it is only the third point for Oranje-Rood in seven games, the team has closed the gap on number 11 Tilburg. Both teams now have six points. For Hurley, squandering a 0-2 lead means extending their run without an away win to eight games.

Amsterdam - Pinoké 2-2
The fiftieth edition of the Bosderby did not produce a winner at Wagener Stadium. In the penultimate minute, Nina van der Marel gave Pinoké's visitors a point, extending coach Daan Sabel's team's unbeaten run to four games. Amsterdam had taken an early lead through Renske Balemans, who was served by an unselfish Felice Albers. Pinoké equalised from a penalty corner. Kiki Rozemeijer's goal set a club record for Pinoké. The team scored in their 22nd consecutive away match. Balemans put Amsterdam ahead again after half-time. With her second goal, she seemed to become the match-winner. In the closing stages, Sabel brought Pinoké goalkeeper Kiki Gunneman to the side for an extra field player, which resulted in Van der Marel's equaliser. It marked Amsterdam's second consecutive draw. The number three of the Tulp Hoofdklasse is six points behind leader SCHC and three behind Kampong.

Bloemendaal - HDM 1-2
HDM recorded a 2-1 away victory over Bloemendaal at 't Kopje, putting an end to a run of five league games without victory for the team from The Hague. The win propelled HDM from seventh to fifth place, while Bloemendaal dropped from fifth to eight. Frederique Dekker put HDM ahead in the second quarter. That was doubled shortly after half-time by Phileine van den Bosch. Despite Rosalie Rosman's tying goal, HDM held on for their first win in six games. Bloemendaal are on a downward run with the second defeat in the last three matches, a run in which the team picked up just one point.

HGC - SCHC 0-2 
Leaders SCHC hardly got into trouble against HGC. After a scoreless first half, the Bilthoven formation broke the spell through Maud van den Heuvel, who shot the ball into the far corner from a turn. Seven minutes later, Pien Dicke doubled the margin by staying cool face-to-face with HGC goalkeeper Sofie ter Kuile. With the win, SCHC is now 25 league games without defeat. Away from home, the series has grown to 21 games without a loss. HGC, meanwhile, is five games without a win and remains ninth on three points from last placed Oranje-Rood.
