The HinduNetherlands forward Lineth Beerensteyn said Thursday she celebrated the United States crashing out of the Women’s World Cup, saying the beaten holders had “a really big mouth”. The United States defeated the Dutch 2-0 in the final in 2019 but its bid for an unprecedented third World Cup title in a row ended on penalties to Sweden in the last 16. Bye!’ “Because from the start of this tournament, they had already a really big mouth,” Beerensteyn said on the eve of the Netherlands’ quarterfinal against Spain in Wellington. “I was just thinking: you first have to show it on the pitch before you are talking.” The US opened its World Cup defence with a 3-0 win over Vietnam but failed to win another game, including drawing 1-1 with the Netherlands in the group phase.
