Both teams come out and the national anthems are performed with great vigor. The crowd joins in with the home team to sing it! It’s great to have fans back in the stadiums. The energy feels completely different with the loud chants!
Q1 1’ NED 0-0 USA (W)
USA get us underway and they win a free hit in the Dutch defensive quarter. But it’s well defended. And Netherlands on the break manage to win a penalty corner!

Q1 2’ NED 0-0 USA (W)
That took a while. Netherlands had the ball in the goal, but it has to be retaken due to early circle entry by Welten. The retake is off target though!

Great work by Jansen to get Netherlands in to the US circle. But the cross attempt deflects off a Dutch stick and goes high. USA get a free hit out.

It’s been all Netherlands so far as the ball has hardly gone into the Dutch defensive half. But USA have been defending well so far, despite the immense pressure.

Netherlands with another dangerous circle entry through Verschoor! But once again her cross is met by no one as the American defenders crowd the space in the center.

Chance!
It’s Verschoor again, who is released by Moses and she can have a go straight at the keeper. But her shot is a bit tame and easily parried away by Bing.

End of Q1
NED 0-0 USA
Netherlands can not believe its stil level. They have absolutely dominated that quarter, but some averaging finishing combined with terrific defending and keeping by the Americans, has kept this all level. How long can they absorb this pressure though?

GOAL!
Moes finally has broken the deadlock for the Dutch. She is found by a great pass in the circle and there is no defender near here. She picks her spot, and buries it!

Half-Time
NED 2-0 USA
Dominant half by the home team. The US defence has been great & that’s the reason this scoreline doesn’t look much worse for them. Netherlands opened the scoring from the first defensive lapse from USA, through Moes, and got a 2nd goal from their 7th PC.

Another quarter of hard work for USA. They have fought hard on defense to keep this at 3-0. Netherlands have got enough in the bank here you’d think. But they could’ve easily had more. Their set pieces particularly have really lacked execution.

Much like their game against Germany, US defense has given a great account of themselves today. But the Dutch pressure has caused them a lot of trouble in creating attacks.

It’s all over. Dutch dominance throughout the game, but American defense once again showing its no push over. They will take positives from this game against a team that sits 14 places above them in world ranking. Can they do better in tomorrow’s rematch?
