Great goal to sentence the key: Dumfries scored the 3-1 of the Netherlands vs. United States | VIDEO

Haji Wright’s goal raised USA’s hopes, but Denzel Dumfries finished them off soon after. A great volley goal from the defender meant the 3-1 in favor of the Netherlands, in the round of 16 key of the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

At minute 81, the experienced Daley Blind projected himself through the left sector and sent a cross to the height of the far post. Dumfries, unmarked, finished off with his left foot, in first, and overcame the resistance of goalkeeper Matthew Turner, at the Stadium Khalifa International.

Dumfries, who plays for Inter Milan, had earned all the praise so far, because he played a key role for the ‘Clockwork Orange’ to have partial victory. The 26-year-old athlete gave the assists for the goals of Memphis Depay (10′) and Daley Blind (45’+1).

In the end, the result did not move anymore. The Dutch team secured their presence in the quarterfinals of the World Cup and will have to face the winner of the series between Argentina and Australia. The duel for the pass to the semifinals will take place on Friday, December 9, at the Ciudad de la Educación Stadium.
