Gakpo: More Freedom With Netherlands Fuels My World Cup Hot Streak
Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo has explained why he thrives more for the Netherlands than at club level. The 27-year-old struck twice in the win over Sweden, helping Oranje become the ninth nation to reach 100 World Cup goals. Gakpo has now scored five times in seven World Cup games. He credits the tactical freedom his national coach gives him for allowing him to influence matches more effectively than at Liverpool. The Netherlands sit top of Group F with four points. A final group game against Tunisia can secure their spot in the knockout rounds and see them finish top of the group.
