Charlie Gilmour once again played 90 minutes as SC Telstar beat Almere 1-0 in the Eerste Divisie, with a number of other Norwich City loanees having a weekend to forget for their respective clubs.
Gilmour has played every minute for the Dutch side as they won their first game since early September.
Elsewhere, Mason Bloomfield couldn't continue his goal-scoring run as he was substituted off in Crawley Town's 2-1 defeat by Bradford City.
Across the Atlantic, Caleb Richards was again involved for the Tampa Bay Rowdies, but their run without a victory continued as they were beaten 2-1 by Hartford Athletic in the USL Championship Eastern Conference.
Richards found himself in a right wing-back position, with Neil Collins tinkering with his starting eleven in search of a solution to the Rowdies poor form.

Portsmouth were beaten 1-0 by struggling AFC Wimbledon in League One although Sean Raggett's defensive display was praised again.
Raggett continues to impress for Pompey, but calls for manager Kenny Jackett to be sacked are increasing, with Accrington Stanley's victory over Ipswich Town on Sunday meaning they drop to 18th in the table.
