Runners-up four years ago, Netherlands Women will be looking to book their place in the last eight at the 2023 Women's World Cup when they face South Africa Women on Sunday.
Although held to a 1-1 draw by the USWNT in Matchday Two, Andries Jonker's side would eventually top the defending champions in Group E courtesy of a 1-0 win over Portugal before concluding their group games by handing out a 7-0 thrashing to Vietnam.
Whereas South Africa did not lose hope despite starting their campaign with a 2-1 loss to Sweden and a 2-2 draw with Argentina, as Banyana Banyana secured their first-ever place in the knockouts by beating Italy in a thrilling five-goal affair.
