Today’s World Cup program – After the difficult win over Senegal, the Dutch team will play its second group game at the World Cup on Friday at 17:00 against Ecuador. Louis van Gaal’s team can already qualify for the eighth finals, although that is also due to the result of the match between Qatar and Senegal. In group B, England-United States is on the program.

World Cup program November 25

  • 14.00 hrs: Qatar-Senegal (Group A)
  • 17.00 hrs: Netherlands-Ecuador (Group A)
  • 20.00 hrs: England-United States (Group B)

Qatar-Senegal

  • Referee: Antonio Mateu Lahoz (Spa)
  • Stadium: Al Thumama Stadium in Doha

Qatar fell through the ice on Sunday during the opening game with Ecuador. The team of the organizing country made a miserable impression and came away with a 0-2 defeat.

The team of national coach Félix Sánchez became the first host country in the 92-year history of the World Cup that went down in the opening game. An early elimination is therefore hanging over Qatar’s head. So far, South Africa is the only host stranded in the group stage (in 2010).

Senegal offered the Orange an excellent game on Monday but had to bow out after two late goals. National coach Aliou Cissé felt the lack of star player Sadio Mané. “We are disappointed that we have not been able to score. We got three or four good chances for that. But the lack of Mané is a problem for us.”

High: This will be the first meeting at a World Cup between the reigning Asian and African champions. Qatar won the Asia Cup of Nations tournament at the beginning of 2019, while Senegal triumphed in the Africa Cup of Nations at the beginning of this year.

Netherlands-Ecuador

  • Referee: Mustapha Ghorbal (Alg)
  • Stadium: Khalifa International Stadium in Doha

The Dutch team can already secure a ticket for the eighth finals on Friday. That is the case if the Netherlands wins against Ecuador and if Qatar loses points against Senegal earlier in the day. The Dutch team has never been eliminated in a group stage at a World Cup. In fact, the Netherlands won its last seven group matches at a global tournament.

At Ecuador, all eyes are on Enner Valencia. The striker of Fenerbahçe is the star player and showed that in the opening game with Qatar by scoring all the goals in the 0-2 win against the host country.

Valencia did drop out with an injury. National coach Gustavo Alfaro did not provide clarity about the employability of the attacker during a press conference on Thursday. He already trained with the group again.

High: Louis van Gaal is still unbeaten as a national coach at a World Cup. The Amsterdammer has won six matches on this stage and two draws to his name. In 2014, the Dutch team was eliminated in the semifinals by Argentina, but that happened after a lost penalty shootout. Only Vittorio Pozzo is in world cup history with seven wins and one draw as many matches unbeaten as Van Gaal. Pozzo guided his native Italy to the world title in 1934 and 1938.

England-United States

  • Referee: Jesús Valenzuela (Ven)
  • Stadium: Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor City

England experienced an excellent start to the World Cup with a 6-2 win over Iran. Coach Gareth Southgate was very pleased with the performance of his team, but also saw a big minus. “I’m very dissatisfied with the way we both concede goals. That is not possible at this level,” said Southgate afterwards. With a win, England is sure of a place in the eighth finals.

Gregg Berhalter, the national coach of the United States, got after the 1-1 draw against Wales the wind from the front in the American media. The national coach kept Giovanni Reyna on the bench for the entire match. The Borussia Dortmund player has often shown that he can be important for the national team, but did not get the chance.

High: The United States provided an iconic World Cup moment in 1950 by beating england, which was considered much stronger, 1-0. ‘The Three Lions’ participated in the World Cup for the first time and were seen as one of the big favorites for the final victory. The players of the United States hardly knew each other before the start of the tournament. The gathering of postmen and dish washers (there was also a driver of a hearse among them) turned out to fit together surprisingly well and outstripped England.
