php form not sending date through to database SQL

I have setup a form using HTML & PHP. I am sending all of my information submitted from the form to an SQL database. When I submit the form I get the error code below:

ERROR: Could not execute INSERT INTO `timesheets` (`Name`, `weekending`, `monin`, `monout`, `tuein`, `tueout`, `wedin`, `wedout`, `thursin`, `thursout`, `friin`, `friout`, `satin`, `satout`, `sunin`, `sunout`) VALUES ('Nathan Langer','07:30','16:00','18:00','19:00','06:30','15:00','03:00','16:00','05:00','16:00','00:00','00:00','00:00','00:00'). Column count doesn't match value count at row 1

As you can see the date does not get pushed through ( should be in between Nathan Langer & 07:30.

My submission code is below:

<?php
/* Attempt MySQL server connection. Assuming you are running MySQL
server with default setting (user 'root' with no password) */
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "username", "pass", "dbname");

// Check connection
if($link === false){
die("ERROR: Could not connect. " . mysqli_connect_error());
}

// Escape user inputs for security
$Name = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['Name']);
$insertdate = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($_POST['weekending']));
$monin = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['monin']);
$monout = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['monout']);
$tuein = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['tuein']);
$tueout = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['tueout']);
$wedin = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['wedin']);
$wedout = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['wedout']);
$thursin = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['thursin']);
$thursout = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['thursout']);
$friin = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['friin']);
$friout = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['friout']);
$satin = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['satin']);
$satout = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['satout']);
$sunin = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['sunin']); 
$sunout = mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $_POST['sunout']);


// attempt insert query execution
$sql = "INSERT INTO `timesheets` (`Name`, `weekending`, `monin`, `monout`,      `tuein`, `tueout`, `wedin`, `wedout`, `thursin`, `thursout`, `friin`, `friout`, `satin`, `satout`, `sunin`, `sunout`) VALUES ('$Name','$monin','$monout','$tuein','$tueout','$wedin','$wedout','$thursin','$thursout','$friin','$friout','$satin','$satout','$sunin','$sunout')";
if(mysqli_query($link, $sql)){
header('location:timesheets.php');
} else{
echo "ERROR: Could not execute $sql. " . mysqli_error($link);
}

// close connection
mysqli_close($link);
?>

Is this because I am doing something wrong with the date in the submission form? the date field in the form is below:

<div class="col-md-6 col-sm-6" >
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon">
<i class="fa fa-calendar"></i>
</span>
<input type="date" id="weekending" class="form-control " name="weekending" placeholder="Week Ending">
</div>                                              
</div>

Please can someone help me find where the issue is and why it won't post through to the database?

You are passing more columns than no. of values,

So you need to correct query by adding one more column name or remove one value.

INSERT INTO `timesheets` (`Name`, `weekending`, `monin`, `monout`, `tuein`, 
`tueout`, `wedin`, `wedout`, `thursin`, `thursout`, `friin`, `friout`, 
`satin`, `satout`, `sunin`, `sunout`) VALUES ('Nathan 
Langer','07:30','16:00','18:00','19:00','06:30','15:00','03:00','16:00','05:00',
'16:00','00:00','00:00','00:00','00:00', '00:00')

Above code will work as i added one more value in it.

change from 

$sql = "INSERT INTO `timesheets` (`Name`, `weekending`, `monin`, `monout`,`tuein`, `tueout`, `wedin`, `wedout`, `thursin`, `thursout`, `friin`, `friout`, `satin`, `satout`, `sunin`, `sunout`) VALUES ('$Name','$monin','$monout','$tuein','$tueout','$wedin','$wedout','$thursin','$thursout','$friin','$friout','$satin','$satout','$sunin','$sunout')";

to 

$sql = "INSERT INTO `timesheets` (`Name`, `weekending`, `monin`, `monout`,`tuein`, `tueout`, `wedin`, `wedout`, `thursin`, `thursout`, `friin`, `friout`, `satin`, `satout`, `sunin`, `sunout`) VALUES ('$Name','$insertdate','$monin','$monout','$tuein','$tueout','$wedin','$wedout','$thursin','$thursout','$friin','$friout','$satin','$satout','$sunin','$sunout')";
