These two countries could meet Oranje and Morocco in the round of 16
The Netherlands have secured group victory at the 2026 World Cup and will play against Morocco in the first knockout round. Possible opponents in the round of 16 are South Africa or Canada.

The Netherlands will face Morocco in the first knockout round on Tuesday, June 30th at 3:00 a.m. The winner of this game will face the winner of the match between South Africa and hosts Canada on Saturday, July 4th at 7:00 p.m. These two teams will face each other on Sunday, June 28th at 9:00 p.m.

South Africa and Canada are therefore the potential opponents for Oranje in the possible round of 16. There are still some uncertainties about the possible opponents in a possible quarter-final. Since the final group games at the World Cup have yet to be played, some positions in this part of the tournament tree have not yet been determined.
If you look at the whole thing virtually, the Netherlands or Morocco would play in the quarterfinals against the winner of the duel between Germany and Paraguay or against the winner of the duel between France and Sweden. These two winners must first compete against each other in the round of 16. However, only Germany is already firmly in this part of the tournament tree. The Netherlands or Morocco would play the quarterfinals on Thursday, July 9 at 10:00 p.m.
