Netherlands Team News
A characteristic of the Netherlands side so far has been the lack of changes. Stars like Virgil van Dijk, Frenkie de Jong, and Cody Gakpo have started every game, providing the continuity they so desperately need. It’s certainly worked well, as after a poor initial game against Japan, they have built enough momentum to blow away Sweden and Tunisia.
The five-goal onslaught against Graham Potter’s side was certainly an eye-opener, as it proved they not only have a strong defensive base, but also excel in front of goal. Bringing Brian Brobbey into the starting eleven certainly made a difference; he’s scored three goals in just two starts.

Last time out, Micky Van de Ven was rested, with Nathan Ake making his first start. Meanwhile, Crysencio Summerville didn’t start, with him picking up a head injury late on versus Sweden. The West Ham winger has already provided three goal contributions and would have been eager to build on them with even more minutes.
It’s a tough game, but Koeman more than appreciates the task at hand. “But it is what it is, and it’ll be a very attractive match. We’re going to be playing offensively,” the Dutch coach said. Two sides at the top of their game, riding high after the group stages; it’s the perfect recipe for another entertaining clash.
