Matthew Lentink (born 18 August 1993) is an Aruban footballer who plays for Derde Divisie club VV Goes and the Aruba national football team as a goalkeeper.[1]
Club career[edit]
After his first senior club RBC Roosendaal filed for bankruptcy in June 2011, Lentink joined VV Goes competing in the Eerste Klasse.[2] He played there for three seasons, and went on a trial with professional club NAC Breda before signing with VV Kloetinge on 10 May 2014.[3] His spell at the club lasted four years, and he joined Zeelandia afterwards.[4][5] After one season there, a season followed at VC Vlissingen before Lentink decided to return to VV Goes.[6] There, he was part of a historic KNVB Cup fixture against ODIN '59 in October 2020, beating the record for most penalty kicks taken in a competitive game in Zeeland ever, with 34.[7] The former record was held by DOSKO and VV Terneuzen, who kicked 30 penalties in 2000 before a winner was found.[8]
International career[edit]
Lentink is an international of Aruba, having made his debut for the national side on 28 March 2014 in a friendly against Guam.[9]
