Star midfielder Danielle van de Donk will serve a one-match suspension vs. Spain.
SYDNEY — Netherlands had just advanced to the quarterfinals of the Women’s World Cup, yet star midfielder Danielle van de Donk looked inconsolable.
After finishing above the Americans in Group E this time, they overcame South Africa at Sydney Football Stadium through goals from Jill Roord in the first half and Lineth Beerensteyn in the second. Her teammates were quick to acknowledge her game-saving efforts, rushing to embrace her after the final whistle.
Just like van de Donk, Swart appeared devastated after the final whistle as teammates and staff consoled her. Van de Donk was close to extending the lead but was denied by the feet of Swart from inside the box, and Kgatlana tested Van Domselaar as South Africa showed its threat on the break. The Netherlands lineup regained control after the restart and thought they’d doubled their lead when Martens turned and converted in the 54th. But their celebrations were cut short when it was ruled out on VAR review for offside.
