Best XI: Women’s World Cup Group Stage

Midfielder: Sherida Spitse (Netherlands)

Netherlands are another side to pass through the group stage with a flawless record, and it appears they haven’t even been at their very best.

One consistent performer in the side has been Spitse, who has been terrific in the centre of the park.

The Valerenga playmaker has worked very hard in the midfield, tracking back and intercepting loose balls and quickly moving the ball forward.

Spitse is a crucial clog in this Dutch machine and manager Sarina Wiegman will be hoping that she can continue this fine form.
