TEC advanced in the KNVB Cup with an entertaining 4-2 victory over VV Almkerk on 2 September 2026. The match produced six goals and gave the home supporters plenty to cheer as TEC's attacking quality proved decisive against a determined amateur side.
End-to-end cup contest
The game had a cup-tie feel right from the start: open, physical, and full of attacking intent. TEC took the initiative early and looked dangerous whenever they moved the ball quickly in the final third. VV Almkerk stayed in the contest by scoring twice, but on each occasion they found a response from TEC waiting around the corner. By full time, the score read 4-2 and TEC had done enough to book their place in the next round.
Clinical finishing makes the difference
While VV Almkerk can look back on a positive cup performance and a couple of well-taken goals, TEC edged this tie with superior composure in front of goal. Scoring four times in a cup fixture is rarely a coincidence; it points to good movement and quick decision-making in offensive areas. The result also highlights the unpredictable nature of the KNVB Cup, where lower-league sides can push bigger names all the way.
For TEC, the win provides momentum beyond the result itself. A strong cup run can energise a club's league campaign, and this performance suggests they are in good rhythm. VV Almkerk may feel disappointed to exit, but they contributed to an entertaining cup evening and can leave with heads held high after a spirited display.
