The United States qualified for the knockout stage of the World Cup after they beat Iran on Tuesday in a must-win match to escape Group B.
Next up for the Americans is a battle with the Netherlands, who won Group A behind two victories and a draw in three group matches.
Like the United States, the Netherlands also failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup. However, the Dutch have a much more impressive footballing pedigree after reaching the semifinals in 2014 and the final in 2010. All of the players from those squads are gone now and a new generation of Dutch players have emerged.
Despite the seven points earned in the group stage, the Netherlands’ performances were far from their best. They produced just 2.3 expected goals (xG) in three matches and offered very little going forward outside of breakout star Cody Gakpo’s three goals. They are likely to be the only group winner to have done so with a negative xG difference.
