Start a new competition. This Saturday, December 3, the Netherlands and the United States open the knockout stage of the World Cup in Qatar. First in Group A, the Dutch appear to be favorites going into this game. Still unbeaten in the tournament, the “Oranges” can count on one of the competition’s revelations, Cody Gakpo, who has already scored three goals in this World Cup. The 23-year-old left-back has always played for PSV Eindhoven. “Cody Gakpo is a great player, an amazing player. He is talented and has a lot of potential. I am very proud of himCody Gakpo should have no shortage of suitors from the next winter transfer window. According to the journalist Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United would have even already positioned themselves on the attacker.
Like the Netherlands, the United States are also still undefeated in this World Cup, as they did not know defeat in group B. “Team USA” achieved a draw against England (1-1). Against the Netherlands, the Americans will try to qualify for the quarterfinals of a World Cup for the first time since 2002. There is no doubt that the selection led by coach Gregg Berhalter will be eager to achieve a feat against the Dutch stars. We recall that the United States, accompanied by Mexico and Canada, will host the next World Cup in 2026.
The round of 16 between the Netherlands and the United States can be followed live from 4pm this Saturday 3 December on BeIN Sports.
Cody Gakpo is likely to leave PSV this winter.
The original plan was to keep him until next summer, but his superb World Cup could change the tables.
Manchester United are among the clubs interested.
