USA vs. Netherlands, 2022 World Cup: Man of the Match

The United States Men’s National Team saw its run at the 2022 FIFA World Cup come to an end Saturday when they lost 3-1 to the Netherlands in the Round of 16. A second Haji Wright goal wasn’t enough to offset Dutch goals by Memphis Depay, Daley Blind, and Denzel Dumfries, and the USMNT bow out of the tournament.
