Louis Van Gaal has implemented a 3-4-3 system focusing on safety in defense. And then they play with three center-backs and two wing-backs who support the midfield and attack. In fact, the formation is a renewal of the style of play at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. That 2014 squad made it to the semifinals.
Frankie De Jong, 25, is the undisputed star of this team. The Dutch also have world-class players like Van Dijk and Memphis in the squad. However, De Jong dictates the pace and control in midfield. He has had a tough time at Barcelona of late but is indispensable for the Netherlands. The team dares to play out from the back when he is on the side. As a result, De Jong uses his control and poise on the ball. De Jong looks to play between the lines, create opportunities, and set the tempo for the whole game.

The United States opened play with the World Cup betting odds was a 1-1 draw against Wales. Next came a hard-fought 0-0 draw against England. Counter to that was Iran getting routed 6-2 by England in its first game. Iran rebounded for a 2-0 win over Wales in their next outing.
Still, Christian Pulisic is the main man when it comes to the U.S. attack. His ability to run at defenses, score goals and set up chances are all advantages. Additionally, his ability to win free kicks is another important asset in a tournament. But gamblers wonder if Pulisic is up to the task of carrying the team. Certainly, it is a daunting task that has weighed heavy on him. The USA has more talent playing beside him than there has been in the past. But if the USA is to make it to the group stage, Pulisic must be at his best.
On the whole, most observers believe the USA should have beaten England. But it was an illustration of their lack of finish.
