USA vs. Netherlands World Cup match recap - FIFA 23 prognosis
In an important match-up in the knockout rounds of the FIFA World Cup, we see the USA take on the Netherlands in a heated battle to see who will come out on top. For the first 40 minutes of the game, the USA has to absorb the pressure from the very experienced Netherlands squad. The defense eventually broke in the 42nd minute by the Dutch as the talented Steven Bergwijn stole a spilled ball and placed it into the goals (0:1). As the second half starts, the USA team puts the attack on, hoping to make a comeback to their poor first half. The Americans press forward and are rewarded with a corner.
A well-maneuvered play leaves Walker Zimmerman wide open as he flicks the ball off his head with a glance at goals, and the ball floats into the net (1:1). The full-time whistle blows, and now both squads have to dig deep to find that winning goal before they face the dreaded penalty shoot-outs. In the first half of extra time, the fast-paced Jesus Ferreira finds his hole through the Netherland's defense and strikes a blazing shot through the keepers' arms. The ball bounces off the top of the crossbar and lets the Americans take the lead (2:1). The rest of the game is spent absorbing the Netherlands attacks as the USA clench the victory and progresses to the Quarter Finals!
