Key takeaways
- Netherlands top Group F with seven points and will face Morocco in the round of 32 in Monterrey on Monday.
- Ronald Koeman’s men flew into a two-goal lead in soggy Kansas City, thanks to some poor defending from their opponents, who leave the tournament without a point.
- First, Ellyes Skhiri sliced Denzel Dumfries’s cross into his own net, and minutes later, Sunderland forward Brian Brobbey lashed home from close range.
Why this matters: an international story with cross-border implications worth tracking.
