If you liked this commentary, make sure to join us again for the live commentary of the round of 16 game between Argentina and Australia as Lionel Messi looks to continue his dream of winning the World Cup later tonight.
An exciting start to the knockout stage of the 2022 FIFA World Cup as Netherlands defeats USA 3-1 to become the first team to seal their place in the quarter-finals. In-form attacker Cody Gakpo failed to pick up an assist or score a goal but was at the thick of things for his team. Dumfries with a goal and two assists to deliver a big performance at a big game.
USA displayed glimpses of brliiance but their relatively young squad came second best against an experiencd Dutch team.
Dumfries, the assist-provider for the first two goals with a brilliant left-footed finish from Blind's cross.
Wright with an exquisite finish from Pulisic's cross. Netherlands fail to clear the ball away following a corner and Pulisic gets the ball near the right edge of the Dutch box. He wiggles through and sends in a low cross. Wright connects well and the dipping shot goes into the back of the net. GAME ON!
Netherlands take a commanding two-goal lead heading into the break. They scored the second goal in the dying moments of the game through Blind, to crush USA's comeback hopes. Netherlands scored both of their goals in identical fashion and it seems USA did not learn their lession after conceding Depay's opener.
In an almost replay of the first goal Dumfries sends in another well-weighted low cross inside the box, this time his fellow wing-back Blind connects superbly with the cross and slots the ball into the back of the net with a confident first-time finish.
Depay with a first-time finish from the centre of the box after a great cross from Dumfries, who has time and space on the right flank.
Cody Gakpo has scored in each of the three games in the competition for the Netherlands and will be looking to continue his fine goal-scoring form in this match.
