NJDevs4978 Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 (edited) US makes the round of 16, continuing their on-again, off-again history in World Cups. Can't say they looked all that impressive in the Wales and Iran games, but on the other hand for all their hair-raising moments defensively they only gave up one penalty kick goal in three games. Now they get the Dutch, which might be a good thing considering they usually play up to the level of their competition and this isn't even a vintage Dutch team. But certainly they should still beat us, especially if Pusilic's 'abdomen' isn't right for Saturday.

point Posted November 30, 2022 Author Share Posted November 30, 2022 The Dutch have underperformed for the last couple of WC competitions and their recent competition does not give many clues to their strengths. Wins over Qatar, Senegal and a tie with Ecuador aren't exactly impressive. Maybe got a good draw in the seeding. Still Netherlands would be my second rooting choice after USA.
