jQuery remove specific field from dynamically generated fields

Good afternoon, I'm hoping someone can help me here.

I'm quite new to jQuery so forgive me if this is a really obvious mistake I'm making.

I've got a form which allows me to add additional fields, I have it working and I've got it so they have unique ID tags but I'd like so when I click my removeFieldTeam it removes the specific field I have clicked on.

At the moment, it removes fields automatically from the bottom upwards.

JSFiddle

Any help is appreciated.

Here is the updated jquery code. I tested, it works:

$(document).ready(function () {

            // Set the counter value
            var countTeam = 1;

            $("#addFieldTeam").click(function () {
                event.preventDefault();
                // If there's more than 10 fields, throw an alert
                if (countTeam == 10) {
                    alert("Only 10 fields allowed");
                    return false;
                }
                // Declaring our new div and adding the form input.
                var newField = $(document.createElement('div'))
                    .attr({
                        id: "newFieldTeam" + countTeam,
                        class: "form-group"
                    });

                newField.after().html(
                    '<label class="form-label-bold" for="fieldTeam' + countTeam + '"' + '>' +
                    'Team '+countTeam+'</label>' +
                    '<input class="form-control fullish" id="fieldTeam' + countTeam +
                    '" type="text">' +
                    '<span><a class="minuslinkreport removeFieldTeam" href="#"> - </a></span>'
                );
                // adding the new field to the page within the #fieldGroupTeam div
                newField.appendTo('#fieldGroupTeam');

                // Increase the counter by 1
                countTeam++;
                console.log(countTeam);

            });
            // Once there's no more fields to delete, throw an error.
            $(document).on('click', ".removeFieldTeam", function () {
                event.preventDefault();
                if (countTeam < 2) {
                    alert("No fields to remove");
                    return false;
                }
                countTeam--
                console.log(countTeam);
                // Decrease the counter by 1 and remove the field.
                console.log($(this).closest('div'));
                 $(this).closest('div').remove();


            });
        });

For the remove button, I changed it from id to class, and onclick I am removing the closest div.

Please test and let me know if this works.

Here is the working fiddle
