In an intriguing KNVB Cup match between VV Eemdijk and OJC Rosmalen, VV Eemdijk emerged victorious with a 2-1 win, largely defined by their effective set-piece strategy and early scoring. VV Eemdijk struck first in the 26th minute, setting the tone with precision and urgency, which allowed them to maintain control throughout the first half. Despite managing only eight corner kicks, this early goal gave VV Eemdijk the leverage needed to dictate the pace against a team that had fewer opportunities from set-pieces, owing to OJC Rosmalen's meagre two corner kicks.

The second half saw VV Eemdijk extend their lead, capitalizing on their momentum and teamwork as demonstrated by their second goal in the 54th minute. This goal was pivotal as it put OJC Rosmalen on the back foot early in the half. However, the tension escalated with VV Eemdijk's growing aggressiveness and the resulting disciplinary actions—two yellow cards issued within 15 minutes, followed by a red card, which forced them to defensively regroup to protect their lead.

OJC Rosmalen's resilience and adaptability were evidenced when they managed to pull one back late in the match at the 92nd minute. With fewer corner kicks and fouls, their efforts highlighted a disciplined approach in the face of a persistent VV Eemdijk. However, the insufficiency in offensive pressure and set-piece opportunities may have contributed to their downfall, depriving them of the elements needed to truly challenge VV Eemdijk's well-established early lead. The disciplined yet less dynamic play of OJC Rosmalen ultimately couldn't overcome the impact of VV Eemdijk’s early tactical advantages in set-pieces and goal-scoring efficiency.
