Published on December 03, 2022 at 12:38 PM

THE NETHERLANDS are through to the last-16 where they will play the USA TODAY in a mouth-watering World Cup clash.

The Dutch topped Group A after getting seven points from their three group stage games.

How Netherlands lined up against Qatar

Cody Gakpo has announced himself on the world stage too, as he sits joint-top of the Golden Boot race in Qatar.

But they have a tricky test to face next, as they prepare for a clash against USA, who managed to get a 0-0 draw out of top scorers at the World Cup England.

The US managed to qualify for the knockout stages of the competition with a 1-0 win over Iran.

And they’ll certainly fancy their chances against the Netherlands who, like their last-16 opponents, failed to qualify for the World Cup in 2018.

How did they get here?

Netherlands ended the group stages on top and unbeaten, with only Ecuador able to squeeze a point out of them.

2-0 wins over Senegal and Qatar either side of Ecuador saw Louis Van Gaal’s side finish in pole postion.

It was a slightly more difficult for the USA who earned a win and two draws to secure their place in the knockout round.

After two points from their first two games against Wales and England, a Christian Pulisic goal gave them the win against Iran, propelling the Yanks to second in the group.

Team news

Pulisic should be ready despite coming off at half time against Iran.

The Chelsea forward scored the winning goal but was injured after clashing with the Iran goalkeeper before netting.

The injury was diagnosed as a pelvic contusion and Pulisic has declared he will be raring to go against Virgil van Dijk and Co.

Cody Gakpo will be part of Netherlands’ forward line again, and he’ll be looking to add to his tally of three goals in Qatar.

Who will be the star men?

PSV superstar Gakpo has exploded on to the world scene during the competition, becoming the first Holland player ever to score in all three group games.

The 23-year-old forward will be looking to add to his three-goal tally that sees him joint top of the Golden Boot race.

Pulisic has been the man pulling the strings for the USA, scoring the vital goal against Iran and winning man of the match against England.

Fellow forward Timothy Weah has also put in some impressive showings and will be looking to add to his goal in their opening match against Wales.
