These sides have never met in competitive football. The last time they played, in a friendly in 2015, the US recorded their only victory ever against the Netherlands in a 4-3 thriller. They would certainly like to repeat that today and progress to the quarter-finals as they continue to prepare for hosting duties in 2026
The Netherlands has been in the shadow of international football for too long. Since the 2010 final and Van Persie’s header four years later, they have failed to qualify for two consecutive tournaments and stumbled out of the European Championships early last summer. But this time it seems different. Amid accusations of it being ‘boring’, Louis van Gaal’s orange unit looks sure and steadfast, with captain Virgil van Dijk a rock in the back and the flair of Cody Gakpo and Frenkie de Jong leading the charge to care. Could this be their year?
Not if the USMNT has anything to do with it. The ferociously backed USA have been almost as confident as the Dutch so far, going through the group stage undefeated and scoring a points victory in their goalless draw with England. Christian Pulisic – eligible to play today after worrying about an injury – has been one of the players of the tournament so far.
This Round of 16 match kicks off at 3pm GMT / 10am ET at the 45,000 seat Khalifa International Stadium in Qatar 2022. Make sure you know how to watch a live stream between the Netherlands and the US and watch the entire FIFA World Cup 2022 to see.
