      World Cup 2022 – Netherlands vs Ecuador LIVE: Stream FREE, score, TV channel – Gakpo opens scoring with stunning strike

      by

      NETHERLANDS are taking on Ecuador in their crucial Group A clash RIGHT NOW – and they lead 1-0!Earlier in their group this afternoon, Senegal defeated hosts Qatar 3-1.
      This means that should the game end in a draw today then Qatar will be knocked out.
      Holland failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup leaving the entire world stunned due to their unbelievable squad.
      But their new range of talent such as Frankie de Jong and Cody Gakpo has led people to believe that they could be the dark horses of the tournament.
      And Netherlands will be backed to get the job done against an Ecuadorian side who haven’t made it out the group stages since 2006.

      Kick-off: 4pm UK
      TV channel: ITV 1
      Live stream: ITV X
      Netherlands XI: Noppert, Dumfries, Timber, Van Dijk, Ake, Blind, Koopmeiners, F. de Jong, Klaassen, Gakpo, Bergwijn
      Ecuador XI: Galindez, Caicedo, Estrada, Estupinan, Hincapie, Mendez, Plata, Porozo, Preciado, Torres, Valencia

      Holland 1 – 0 Ecuador
      7. Klassen nicked the ball off the Ecuador defence and fed Holland’s most in-form striker.
      The forward took two touches to the ball out from under his fast feet.
      And then he unleashed a howitzer into the stanchion.
      Holland 1 – 0 Ecuador
      6. GAKPO BANGER!
      A left-foot piledriver flies in the top bin.
      Pick that out
      Holland 0 – 0 Ecuador
      4. Ecuador have an injury with Preciado down and needing treatment.
      The defender gets to his feet but has to go off.
      A bit of physio TLC appears to have cured him and we have 11 v 11 again.
      Holland 0 – 0 Ecuador
      2. The Dutch controlling the ball with Total Football.
      Ecuador are not pressing too high or desperately.
      Edgar Davids is wearing sunglasses on the bench. Well you would too if you were Eddie Davies
      Headache
      Some Dutch fans are wearing traditional Arabic head dresses in the stadium.
      There are reports that fans are not allowed to drink alcohol while wearing such outfits.
      So lets hope they’re teetotal or have alternative clothes under their orange robes.
      EcuaRoar
      The boys belt out their anthem with some gusto.
      Valencia shuts his eyes tightly as studies have shown voluntary blindness can increase singing volume by up to 3 per cent.
      They are up for this.
      Ecuabore at the back
      The yellow underdogs are on a run of seven consecutive clean sheets starting way back in March.
      The Dutchm, though, have kept four clean sheets in their last four World Cup matches and have their eye on equalling the tournament record of five.
      A goal fest is not on the cards.
      Beginning of the Enner
      Ecuardor ace Enner Valencia kicked the Qatar tournament off with a classy brace against the hosts.
      But how will the sharp shooter fare against the Dutch and their star defender Virgil van Dijk?
      The Liverpool leader has struggled at times in the Prem this season. Can he be exposed again?
      Ecualiser?
      The South Americans go 5-4-1 in a defensive bid to blockade against the Dutch attack.
      Expect wave after to wave of orange skill and flair.
      But we have seen a few superb upsets so far and would love another.
      Sub Standard
      Some real aces in the dug-out hole for Netherlands today.
      De Ligt, Depay and De Jong all start on the bench.
      Will it be D-Dady for the Dutch or Ecuador?
      Group A state of play
      So here is the Group A table.
      And this means that if this next game is a draw then hosts Qatar will be the first team knocked out.
      There will be no way of them reaching four points with one game left.

      Atmosphere building
      The fans are arriving in their droves in Doha.
      Not long to kick-off now.
      And remember, if it is a draw then hosts Qatar will be knocked OUT.

      Sambad news
      Neymar is reportedly out of Brazil’s next two games at the World Cup.
      The PSG forward injured his ankle against Serbia and now looks ruled out of the remaining group games.
      What effect will that have on the World Cup favourites?
      Depay sidelined
      The rapid forward only gets a spot on the bench.
      But we can expect him to get at least the second 45 minutes.
      Depay de price
      LvG has revealed that fellow Manchester United reject Memphis Depay could play a half of the game after his hamstring injury.
      The boss said: “The injury he has makes it so difficult to decide when he can start.
      “But he is an extraordinary player and so I have set aside my principles because I consider him to be incredibly important to my team.
      “I explained this to the players, that I am doing all this for Memphis, and the players accepted this.”
      Dum For
      Holland started the OneLove campaign but have decided against pressuring Fifa further over the armbands.
      Defender Denzel Dumfries said: “Over the past few weeks, we’ve really talked about it a lot. But we came to Qatar to play football.
      “That’s what we’re focusing on”.
      No Stance
      Holland boss Luis van der Gaal insists his side do need to copy Germany and their anti-Fifa gesture.
      The ex-Man United manager said: “”We put a full stop after all the political issues last Thursday.
      “We have this purpose and we’re not going to have that tarnished by the actions of Fifa, or whichever other organisation”.

      He was captured saying: “Messi, he has the ball in the middle of the pitch and you stand [hands up] in front of the defence.
      “You have to go and mark him in the middle. Take your phone, you can make a picture with him!

      “You don’t feel we are able to come back? You don’t feel it? You play relaxed. Come on guys, this is the World Cup. Give everything!”
      Renard’s message paid dividends as just three minutes into the second half Saleh Al-Shehri brilliant slotted into the corner to equalise.
      But winger Salem Al-Dawsari took home the spoils after his wonderstrike sealed a famous win.
      He cut in from the left and fired into the top corner on 53 minutes and Saudi Arabia held on for well over 40 minutes.

      I am USA’s ‘hottest World Cup fan’ – I hope we beat England but there is something about the Brits that makes me MELT

      by

      AN AMERICAN woman dubbed the “hottest World Cup fan” has faith her team will triumph over England – but admitted she just can’t resist Brits charms. Rachel Stuhlmann, 26, has football fans falling at her feet with her sexy snaps showing her support for her side ahead of Friday’s game.

      The former tennis pro turned influencer sported an eye-popping bra adorned with the US flag to rally Americans before their team take on their transatlantic rivals.
      Although she only attended her first-ever football game on November 16 in her hometown of from St Louis, Missouri, Rachel has buckets of enthusiasm for the World Cup.
      She says she was converted to a “huge soccer fan”, even though St Louis’ reserve team lost 0-3 against Bundesliga side Bayer 04 Leverkusen.
      But despite being ready to witness a win, Rachel admitted she is somewhat a fan of the Three Lions too.

      The 26-year-old, who boasts a whopping 234,000 Instagram followers, confessed Brits have the ability to make her “melt”.
      The six-foot brunette said eligible bachelors from the UK disarm her with their irresistible accent.
      Rachel gushed: “I’ll be honest, I don’t know much about either team’s seasons to be able to make an intelligent prediction.
      “I’ve heard the England team is amazing and are one of the favourites to win not only that game, but the whole tournament.
      Most read in The Sun
      “However, since they didn’t qualify for World Cup in 2018, I think USA will come out ready to play and with a chip on their shoulder!
      “I think it’s going to be an entertaining and well-played game. But I wish both teams could win.
      “I’ve met a few British guys on tour and they are all so nice and charming – I just love the accent, it melts me!”
      England is heading into tonight’s game in stunning form after thrashing Iran 6-2 in their opener in Doha.
      But now they’ll have to switch their focus on USA, who drew 1-1 with Wales on Monday night.
      Rachel is putting down her tennis racket to tune into the pivotal game that kicks off at 7pm UK time.
      She is swerving the sweltering heat in Qatar to watch the game elsewhere, as she prefers a colder climate.
      The athlete added: “I love cold weather! Winter time is my absolute favourite time of year!
      “I love the fall and winter seasons and the holidays. My favourite thing is spending time with my family around the holidays. I also love the fresh air outside when it’s cold, and fall and winter fashion.
      “I love staying in on a winter night and watching a movie!”
      Rachel first gained recognition after playing NCAA Division I tennis for the University of Missouri from 2010 to 2014, earning a national ranking in singles and doubles.

      Paddy’s PuntsTips provided by Paddy Power
      HANDICAP BETTING: ENGLAND -1 – 6/4
      England looked to be back to their best in the 6-2 demolition of Iran while the US faded against Wales after a strong first half. With their scoring boots firmly on, the Three Lions could rack up a few goals in another win.
      OVER 2.5 GOALS – 4/5
      Gareth Southgate’s side did look a bit shaky at times on Monday so the USA might fancy their chances of getting on the scoresheet – but expect them to concede too.
      BUKAYO SAKA TO SCORE OR ASSIST – 5/6
      Saka was one of England’s star men on Monday and he’s been having a super season for Arsenal. With two World Cup goals to his name and 10 direct involvements for the Gunners, there’s a good chance he sets one up or scores.
      TIMOTHY WEAH TO HAVE 1+ SHOTS ON TARGET – EVS
      Weah scored USA’s goal against Wales and looked a real threat cutting in from the right-hand side. He’ll be looking to get in behind England’s back line and will fancy his chances of having another shot on target.
      TYLER ADAMS TO BE SHOWN A CARD – 21/10
      Adams and Weston McKennie were all action against Wales, and this hyperactivity could translate into cards against England. The Leeds man is more likely to be booked here as McKennie already has one to his name in the tournament.

      Wales lost to Iran in the 10am kick-off, and that was followed by a victory for Senegal over hosts Qatar at the Al Thumama Stadium.
      The Netherlands and Ecuador, who both boast three points in Group A, then clash in what could decide who finishes top.

      England vs USA
      After their emphatic 6-2 victory over Iran in Monday’s opening group game, England are back in action.
      The Three Lions showed they mean business against their 20th-ranked opponents, and could make another statement with Harry Kane fit and available for selection after a fitness scare.
      England will qualify for the last 16 if they beat the United States and should capitalise on the buoyant mood they’ve built in camp.
      Things aren’t so buoyant for the US, who fell apart in the second half against Wales.
      Gregg Berhalter’s side flew out the traps but subsided before eventually being pegged back by a late Gareth Bale penalty.

      Our pick: Kane 2+ shots on target and England to win 3-0, 3-1 or 3-2 at 7/1 with Sky Bet. New Sky Bet customers can claim £40 in free bets. CLAIM HERE*

      Netherlands vs Ecuador
      This could be a very interesting tie indeed.
      The Netherlands were a touch fortunate to escape with three points over a resilient Senegal, and the 2-0 scoreline arguably flattered them.
      But the introduction of forward Memphis Depay, who was previously a fitness concern, completely changed the game for Louis van Gaal’s side.
      The 28-year-old almost certainly starts on Friday, and he’ll be needed against the impressive Ecuador.
      Ecuador dealt with the pressure of the competition’s opening game against the hosts, who’d never lost the opening game of a World Cup.
      Enter Valencia was sharp when bagging a brace, and Brighton duo Moises Caicedo and Pervis Estupinan added a touch of class to the XI.

      Our pick: We think Ecuador will throw a spanner in the works by claiming three points at odds of 4/1 with Betfair. New Betfair customers will receive £30 in free bets when they stake £10 on football. CLAIM HERE*

      BBC pundit Robbie Savage mocked for claiming ‘it’s only Iran, I could still play against them and win’ before Wales loss

      by

      ROBBIE SAVAGE has been ridiculed after claiming “it’s only Iran” and that even he could “win a game of football” against Carlos Queiroz’s side before Wales’ shellshock defeat.Rob Page’s men were humbled by the Iranian national team after losing 2-0 at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium and are now facing a mountain to climb to reach the World Cup Last 16.

      The Dragons capitulated after Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey was sent off on 86 minutes.
      Iran then opened the scoring with Rouzbeh Cheshmi in the 99TH MINUTE before Ramin Rezaeian completed the upset victory just three minutes later.
      Savage, 48, was left with egg on his face as he was adamant on Monday that Wales would destroy Iran.
      The former Leicester ace even insisted his non-league club Macclesfield would beat Queiroz’s men.

      Savage told co-host Chris Sutton while presenting 606 on BBC Radio: “It’s only Iran… Iran were terrible, terrible, and you think Wales will finish bottom?
      “I could still play against Iran now and win a game of football. Iran are that bad I think Wales and USA will beat Iran.

      “I’ve watched all the TV coverage, Iran were useless. Macclesfield would beat Iran.”
      Sutton warned against underestimating Iran and was proven right as Wales’ chances of World Cup qualification hang in the balance after previously drawing 1-1 with USA.

      The ex-Chelsea ace took to social media after the game and gave his co-host a slice of humble pie.
      Sutton tweeted: “‘It’s only Iran’ @RobbieSavage8 said the other night. So disrespectful. Iran deserved this by far the better team. Wales have been schooled. Well played Iran.”
      Savage responded with a Welsh flag and sad emoji: “Looking forward to 606 tonight.”
      More fans took to Twitter to give the famous pundit a piece of their mind.
      One fan tweeted: “Robbie Savage spent the night after the first round of group matches utterly disrespecting the footballing ability of Iran. Repeatedly. On national BBC radio. Life is good.”
      Another posted: “I’ll be interested to hear Robbie Savage talk about this Wales performance given how he could not stop saying how awful Iran were after they played England.”
      A third wrote: “Just wondering if Iran are still the worst team in the competition @RobbieSavage8.”
      This fan said: “A very disrespectful comment from Savage. This was always going to be a tough game for both nations.
      “Unlucky Wales, you couldn’t fault their effort, but this was Iran’s day and they absolutely deserved the win.”
      And that one tweeted: “Bet Robbie Savage regrets saying how s**t Iran are on 606 now.” More

      Qatar 0-2 Senegal
      60. It is ironic really.
      In a country that is constantly questioned about alleged human rights violations that their football strike force is so blunt.
      They need to show more urgency in their play, like it isn’t an exhibition match.
      Qatar 0-2 Senegal
      58. Hoping for Qatar to get two quick goals to make a game out of this may be too much to ask.

      We now want Qatar to have a shot on target before full time.
      Qatar 0-2 Senegal
      56. Ismail is caught as he drags the ball back, sending the defender to the shops,
      Free kick for Qatar in a dangerous position.

      Sums up their tournament right there.
      Qatar 0-2 Senegal
      54. Cannot imagine what the crowd will be like in Qatar’s final game.
      Just an away end maybe.

      Qatar 0-2 Senegal
      52. Qatar need to have a go at this now.
      Not that they look like a team who are holding back in any way.
      They have just looked out of their depth in their two games so far.
