Depay was a risk for the Netherlands after picking up a hamstring injury before the tournament. Missing two of the Netherlands matches, Depay is back to Louis van Gaal's starting line-up.
Barcelona star
Memphis Depaymade a brief cameo in Netherlands’ 2-0 victory over Senegal but his fitness was still doubtful ahead of the
Netherlands' final group game of Qatar 2022 against Qatar.
Louis Van Gaal has selected the former Manchester United star to start alongside Gakpo against Qatar. He said:
"We're going to do anything and everything to progress to the next match."
Depay will group with Netherlands’ wonderboy
Gakpo
, who proved to be trustworthy of his national side.
While
Qatar
is already eliminated, the Netherlands tries for a win to go to the next stage of the tournament as the group winners. If so, they will either face Iran or England in the next stage of the tournament.
