{Das zum Jahreswechsel 39/40 ausgetragene Match auf 14 Partien führte den
jungen Keres (erst 23 Jahre alt) mit dem äußerst erfahrenen Matchspieler Euwe
zusammen. Die holländischen Organisatoren hatten dabei auch ein neuerliches
Match Aljechin-Euwe im Auge. Für Keres, seit dem Sieg beim AVRO 1938 für einen
Wettkampf gegen Aljechin legitimiert, hieß es einfach nur Matcherfahrung zu
sammeln.  Zunächst führte dann auch der Niederländer, doch genau diese 9.
Partie ließ Keres erstmals in Front gehen; am Ende errang er einen knappen 7,5:
