According to [1], the Dutch reserve player Struylaart won twice, but his opponent remains unnamed there and these games were not part of the official match. The Dutch team was missing quite a few strong players, like Cortlever, de Groot and van Scheltinga, but was still clearly superior. Those games I have, I found in a variety of newspapers and chess magazines ([2]-[8]).
Wanted
- Most games.
- Who was Struylaart’s opponent?
