🧠 Match Summary

vs

Tunisia's hopes of a famous upset were dashed in Kansas City as the Netherlands cruised to a 3-1 victory to seal their place in the knockout rounds. The Dutchmen struck early through an Ellyes Skhiri own goal in the 3rd minute, before Brian Brobbey doubled the advantage just four minutes later, effectively settling Dutch nerves inside the opening quarter-hour. Hazem Mastouri briefly gave Tunisia a lifeline with a well-taken finish in the 54th minute, but Jan Paul van Hecke restored the two-goal cushion eight minutes later to put the result beyond doubt.

The Netherlands' dominance was reflected throughout the statistics — 72% possession, 20 shots to Tunisia's 10, and seven on target — as the Oranje controlled proceedings with trademark composure under referee Katia Itzel García. Tunisia showed spirit but ultimately lacked the quality to trouble one of Europe's most formidable sides across a full 90 minutes.
