This summer's Women's World Cup has been full of drama and entertainment, with several big hitters going out early, and under-established sides making deep runs into the competition. Tournament hosts Australia have certainly made their mark, and the competition on the other side of the bracket with the likes of Sweden, Netherlands and Spain has never been at a higher level. Ahead of the final, we select our Team of the Tournament for the 2023 Women's World Cup!
Within the past five seasons, Jill Roord has consistently been one of the top performing players across the globe. She's made a massive impact for VFL Wolfsburg across the past few years, helping them to reach the Champions League Final in the latest campaign. She's also been a stalwart behind the success of the Netherlands, including en route to her nation reaching the final at the previous iteration of the World Cup in 2019.
Netherlands came into Euro 2020 as clear Group C favourites, and they did not disappoint by any stretch of the imagination, winning all three of their matches. Frank de Boer's team have been tactically fluid, outstanding both in and out of possession and have genuinely looked like one of the most exciting teams at the tournament. So with the knockout stages just a few days away, we take a look at Netherlands' tactics at the tournament so far.
