The sequence of contraction affects the solution if you do not repeat the process after release the blossom.

if you contract (6,7,8,9,10), (4,5,11,12,13), (2,3,14,15,16) first
   you get maximum matching.
but if you contract (1,2,3,4,5) first and don't repeat the process after release it
   you don't get to the maximum.

Hope this helps.
