The Young Orange team lost 3-1 to the United States on Friday night in the second match of the tournament in Toulon.
Debut Bertrams and De Wijs
Jong Oranje started with three PSV players in the starting lineup. The debutants were Jesse Bertrams (in goal) and defender Jordy de Wijs. Mohamed Rayhi was also there from the start. The Dutch did take the lead through a long-distance shot by Brahim Darri, which did not seem unstoppable. But midway through the first half, America equalized through Jerome Kiesewetter, who surprised Betrams in the near corner. It also became 1-2 before halftime through Alonso Hernandez, who was able to work in from close range.
Vloet and Leemans
The first opportunity after halftime was also a direct hit for Team USA. William Packwoord headed a Greene corner kick behind Bertrams: 3-1. Despite the offensive substitutions at halftime, Reijnierse brought in Rai Vloet among others, no more goals were scored. Clint Leemans also made his appearance after the break. Next Sunday, the Dutch will play the third group game against Qatar.
