Bronze for Rotterdam as Hertzberger bids emotional farewell

Final quarter goals from Menno Boeren and Thijs van Dam saw HC Rotterdam win their fourth EHL bronze medal and fifth in total as they saw off SV Kampong 2-0.

It provided an emotional send-off for Jeroen Hertzberger who has been part of each of those medal successes as he is set to depart the club after 22 seasons at the end of this campaign.

The game itself was a back and forth tussle throughout with precious few chances at either end. Kampong were unable to make full use of their one penalty corner in the first half while a few half chances also went abegging.

Boeren did get the breakthrough in the 47th minute when he bundled in a rebound from Hertzberger’s initial corner drag-flick.

And the game was made safe in the dying seconds by Thijs van Dam when he raced onto Pepijn van der Heijden’s through ball and tipped into an open goal.

Den Bosch survive huge battle with Gantoise to reach GRAND FINAL

Josine Koning’s incredible shoot-out heroics saw Den Bosch survive a huge battle with Gantoise to move a step closer to a third EHL Women’s title.

The goalkeeper kept a clean sheet in the one-v-one phase as her side won 3-0 after an epic normal time tussle ended 1-1.

It was back and forth throughout with Alix Gerniers’ backhand the first shot in anger in the ninth minute while Ambre Ballenghien’s amazing upright volley was repelled by Koning.

In response, Charlotte Englebert’s rising shot hit the outside of the post, keeping it 0-0 at half-time.

Into the second half and Maartje Krekelaar was the first to sting the gloves of Pauline de Ryck before the first goal came. Laura Nunnink was teed up by Emma Reijnen and had all the time to get her shot away – it was saved but Lieve Wijckmans was available to chip in the shot.

Gantoise came roaring back and won a string of penalty corners, the last of which was slapped powerfully in by Alix Gerniers via a big deflection.

That was with less than a minute to go, sending the game to a shoot-out. There, however, Koning was unbeatable while Pien Sanders, Krekelaar and Frédérique Matla all scored theirs for an emotional win.

Braxgata in dreamland as first Belgian EHL Women medal assured

Braxgata’s unbelievable first EHL Women’s appearance saw them defeat Düsseldorfer HC 3-0 to advance to Monday’s GRAND FINAL.

It means a first medal for a Belgian club in the competition. Indeed, it was all the way back in 1979 when a club from the country won a medal in the top tier in the former EuroHockey Club Cup.

They were good value for this one as they took the lead in the 23rd minute courtesy of Stephanie Vanden Borre’s powerful penalty corner.

It was 2-0 when Ivanna Pessina’s raking pass split the entire Düsseldorf defence to where Louise De Waet was waiting in behind and she calmly finished off.

And Helle Verlinden notched the third from a corner touch at the right post after a ricochet fell her way.

The German champions did have a string of good chances as they ended the contest with 12 penalty corners but the incredible defensive running off the line meant the Brax defence was not to be breached.
