[HT: 3-0; hosts were V.U.C. strengthened with some players from other clubs
from Den Haag; prior to the match a conflict arose between three players
from S.U.B.T. (Confesor, Mercera and Pietersz), who had arrived later than
the other players, and team official Van Rosberg about their inclusion in
the line-up, which led to considerable changes made at half-time (differing
reports were published on the reasons for and exact nature of these changes,
but they appear to have had a positive effect)]
