The USA got their 2023 World Cup off to the perfect start with a convincing 3-0 win over Vietnam at Eden Park Stadium in New Zealand. A first-half double from Sophia Smith gave them control, and a 77th-minute strike from Lindsey Horan added some gloss to the scoreline. However, the Netherlands will prove a much sterner test of the USWNT’s abilities.
The Netherlands also enjoyed a winning start to their World Cup 2023 campaign with a 1-0 victory over Portugal. The result was secured thanks to a goal within the first 15 minutes from Stefanie van der Gragt, and the Netherlands rode out the rest of the game looking fairly comfortable. Going into this game the Oranje Leeuwinnen (Orange Lionesses) will be hoping to banish some old demons after losing to the USA in the final of World Cup 2019 in France.
If either team can win this tie, they will take a commanding position in Group E and become favorites to qualify as the group winner. Expect an intense game with both sides looking to claim the victory from the get-go. You won’t want to miss this one, and we’ll show you how to watch it online and from anywhere down below.
Here are the starting 9's for the teams:
USA: Naeher, Girma, Ertz, DeMelo, Horan (c), Smith, Morgan, Sullivan, Dunn, Rodman, Fox
Netherlands: Van Domselaar, Van Der Gragt, Doord, Spitse (c), Snoeijs, Van De Donk, Martens, Groenen, Pelova, Janssen, Brugts

How to watch USA vs Netherlands anywhere
USA vs Netherlands live streams will be shown on many different channels across the world, but what if you're not in your home country and want to watch it on your usual service?
The answer is to use a VPN, or virtual private network. A VPN will let you tune into your home coverage from wherever you are — meaning that if you're abroad, you can use one of the best VPN services to watch the games live as if you were in your lounge.
Our favorite right now is ExpressVPN, thanks to its combination of superb speed, great customer service and excellent device support. It also offers a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you could check it out without having to sign up long-term.
Speed, security and simplicity combine to make ExpressVPN our favorite VPN service. In our testing, we were impressed by its fast connection times and by its ability to access more than 3,000 services in 160 locations across 94 countries. A 30-day money-back guarantee is another bonus.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Sling or another service and watch the game.
