Andries Jonker, the coach of the Netherlands women's football team, is promising an exhilarating and captivating match as they face the formidable four-times champions, the United States, in the Women's World Cup group stage on Thursday.


This match holds special significance as it's a highly anticipated rematch of the 2019 final, where the United States emerged victorious. The clash will take place in Wellington, and the stakes are high for both teams.


The United States is determined to achieve an unprecedented third consecutive title, while the Dutch team aims to rekindle the spirit of their 2017 European Championship win, showcasing their prowess on the global stage.


Jonker expressed his excitement, stating that this game will exemplify modern women's football at its finest. He emphasized that it will be an intense battle from the first minute to the last, featuring teams that are eager to compete and win, while also maintaining mutual respect and fearlessness towards each other. The coach believes it will be a phenomenal match-up, with both sides vying for the top spot in the group.


The Netherlands started their campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over debutants Portugal. However, they suffered a setback as Lineth Beerensteyn sustained an ankle injury during the match, and it is doubtful if she will be available for the upcoming game against the United States. Moreover, the team is already missing their all-time leading scorer, Vivianne Miedema, who couldn't recover in time from an ACL injury sustained in December.


On the other side, the United States is also facing a challenge of improving their finishing power after squandering several opportunities in their opening 3-0 win against Vietnam.


Dutch midfielder Jackie Groenen expressed her admiration for the American team, acknowledging their long-standing reputation as one of the world's best teams. However, she also pointed out that the Netherlands is steadily growing and developing as a team, setting the stage for an enthralling clash of different qualities.


Groenen emphasized that her team is focused on the present and not dwelling on past encounters, particularly the Olympic quarter-final loss to the United States two years ago.


In conclusion, the upcoming match between the Netherlands and the United States promises to be an enthralling spectacle, showcasing the best of modern women's football. Both teams are determined to secure victory and progress in the tournament, making it a must-watch event for football enthusiasts worldwide.
