The Netherlands advanced relatively easily from their group. The premiere against Senegal was won after two late goals without shining. In the second match, they played for the cross and did not want to advance against Ecuador. Finally, they won easily against Qatar, but even then they were not convincing in terms of play. Now they face their most difficult opponent so far in the form of the USA.

If the Netherlands show the same type of football that they performed in the Nations League then they should progress from this meeting, but if it is the same Netherlands that we saw in the group stage, I am not entirely sure that it will be enough to advance.

The U.S. have had a trend of strong first halves and then fading toward the end of the game. The frenetic pressing game together with the aggressiveness they have against ball holders is difficult to maintain for an entire match. Not even a midfield with Tyler Adams can handle it, but they are well organized defensively. The USA went undefeated through the group, but there is a lack of edge offensively. They feel better in the counter-attack when the ball is won high up the pitch. Against the Netherlands' sometimes nonchalant passing game, this is possible. Both the Netherlands and De Jong need to step up to avoid ending up in that type of situation.

Tactically, the Netherlands is an opposition that suits the USA very well. It's a team that likes to take risks in the passing game, which is perfect for the USA's way of playing. The Netherlands are favorites to advance, but the USA is far from without a chance.

Let’s back the USA (just for this football game).

荷兰队相对容易地从小组中晋级。对塞内加尔的首演是在两个迟到的进球后赢得的，表现并不出色。在第二场比赛中，他们为平时而战，并不想在对阵厄瓜多尔时提前晋级。最后，他们轻松赢得了对卡塔尔的比赛，但即使如此，他们在比赛方面也没有说服力。现在他们面对的是迄今为止最困难的对手，即美国队。

如果荷兰展现出他们在欧国联的水平，那么他们应该从今天的比赛中晋级，但如果是我们在小组赛中看到的那个荷兰，我并不完全确定这将足以晋级。

美国队有一个趋势，那就是上半场很强，然后在比赛后期下滑。狂热的压迫比赛加上他们对持球者的攻击性，很难在整场比赛中保持节奏。即使是有亚当斯的中场也无法应付，但他们的防守组织得很好。美国队在小组赛中保持不败，但在进攻方面缺乏优势。当球在高位抢下时，他们在反击中感觉更好。面对荷兰队有时不慌不忙的传球，这是有可能的。荷兰队和德容都需要加强，以避免在这种类型的情况下受损。

在战术上，荷兰队是一个非常适合美国队的对手。这是一支喜欢在传球中冒险的球队，这非常适合美国队的比赛方式。荷兰是晋级的热门球队，但美国队远非没有机会。

让我们支持美国（只是这场足球比赛）。
