Facing the Netherlands in the knockout stage, worlds collide for USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter at the World Cup
Former USWNT player Joanna Lohman breaks down how the USMNT advanced to the knockout stage and what to expect in their matchup against the Netherlands.DOHA, Qatar — Gregg Berhalter can admit now to being “totally unprepared” for professional soccer when he went to the Netherlands out of college.
But it’s Berhalter’s time in the Dutch league – six years at Zwolle, Sparta and Cambuur – that shaped who he is as a coach and, in turn, the team he now leads. Though Berhalter left Holland more than 20 years ago – in 2000 to be exact – he remains close to people he met during his time there. But pivotal as his time there was, there’s no room for sentiment in Saturday’s round of 16 game.
“We felt a responsibility to use this World Cup to create momentum in the United States for soccer,” Berhalter said. “That’s why we want to keep going, and we want to keep doing well.”
