An even bigger challenge would be next, if Netherlands win their group and later beat the USMNT. One may think Mexico’s trip would be over here, but we shouldn’t rule them out. If Martino‘s men manages to hold the Dutch side, a penalty shootout could end up giving Mexico the edge.

This would see El Tri make a shocking run to the semifinals, thoughthings might get more complicated here. Brazil have seriousaspirations, and if they make all the way to this stage, they’d probably get the job done to be in the final.
