Two teams didn’t show up, leaving six to duke it out for one spot in the final group. Consequently, KGSRL – consisting for 50% of Dutchmen – only had to play two matches: one against a much stronger opponent, and one against a much weaker one. It lost the former with ½-5½ and won the second one with the same score.
