The individual results of the play-off competitions are not included in the individual balance sheets.
Taco Vrenegoor was not yet eligible to play for SV Zukertort Amstelveen when he first played the season in the third round, so this game was counted as a lost for Amstelveen. The actual result (victory against Kees Nieuwelink) is taken into account for the individual balance sheets.
