Berg en Dal vs Eendracht Termien Match Recap - Nov 2, 2025
In an electrifying showdown at the B.R.I.S. Stadion on November 2, Berg en Dal turned their recent misfortunes into triumph, defeating Eendracht Termien 4-2 in a match that had fans on the edge of their seats. This victory not only provided much-needed relief but also marked a turning point for a team struggling in the Second Amateur Division - VFV B standings.
From the outset, Berg en Dal was determined to shed their disappointing form, having recorded two draws and three losses in their previous five matches. They came out firing with an offensive display that would leave no room for doubt about their intent. Striker Michael de Boer opened the scoring early, showcasing his skill as he received a pass inside the box and nudged it past Eendracht's goalkeeper to send the home crowd into a frenzy.
However, Eendracht Termien, undeterred by falling behind, swiftly responded. A powerful shot from Liam Jacobs leveled the game at 1-1 just moments later. This goal highlighted why Jacobs has been pivotal for Eendracht; his ability to find space and finish clinically kept hopes alive for the visitors.
As the first half progressed, Berg en Dal's newfound attacking momentum shone through again. A well-executed corner kick led to a header from defender Thomas Meijer that slipped past Eendracht's defense, restoring Berg en Dal's lead at 2-1 just before halftime. The players left the field with renewed confidence and belief, energized by their strong showing.
The second half continued this back-and-forth battle as Eendracht pushed hard to regain control. They found opportunities but struggled to convert chances into goals amid solid defensive work from Berg en Dal. Their persistence paid off when Jacobs struck again, bringing the score to 2-2 with another impressive finish that left defenders scrambling.
Just when it seemed like Eendracht might seize momentum, Berg en Dal responded decisively. With ten minutes remaining on the clock, goals from de Boer and midfielder Sam Claes sealed the victory at 4-2 for Berg en Dal. De Boer scored his second of the match with a well-timed run behind Eendracht's defense; Claes quickly followed up with his own strike shortly thereafter as nerves frayed among Eendracht's ranks.
The result leaves Berg en Dal feeling revitalized after fluctuating performances leading up to this match. Meanwhile, Eendracht Termien will have much to ponder following their defeat; they now face critical decisions to turn around their season after winning only one of their last six matches.
With this important win, Berg en Dal climbs into more favorable territory within league standings while Eendracht Termien finds themselves looking over their shoulder as they remain close to relegation concerns. Both teams are set to face tough opponents next week: Berg en Dal against Royal Antwerp II and Eendracht facing Bocholt.
Reflecting on my earlier predictions of an unpredictable clash leaning towards favoring Eendracht Termien, it's clear I missed the mark entirely this time around-credit must be given where due as Berg en Dal displayed resilience and flair that few would have predicted amidst recent inconsistencies. For both squads moving forward, every point will count as they navigate through what promises to be an intense remainder of the season filled with high stakes and fervent competition.
