A Dutch soccer star slammed US players for their arrogance at the World Cup. Americans are clapping back after her team's loss.

• Dutch forward Lineth Beerensteyn slammed USWNT players for their arrogance at the 2023 World Cup.
• She and the Netherlands are now headed home after she missed multiple opportunities against Spain.

Dutch striker Lineth Beerensteyn has gotten an earful since the Netherlands' 2-1 loss to Spain in the World Cup quarterfinal on Friday.

But the blowback didn't come from her own country. Nor did it come from the victors' side.

It came from the land of opportunity — and clapbacks: the United States of America.

In the days leading up to the Netherlands' game against Spain, Beerensteyn publicly celebrated the US Women's National Team's elimination from the tournament in the Round of 16.

"From the first moment I heard they were out, I was just like, 'Yes! Bye!'" Beerensteyn said.

She accused the Americans — the two-time reigning World Cup champions and FIFA's top-ranked team — of having "really big mouths" and "already talking about the final" from the opening rounds of the tournament.

"I was thinking you first have to show it on the pitch before you talk," Beerensteyn said.

Despite insisting that she was "not being rude" and still has "a lot of respect for them," the 26-year-old Juventus forward seemingly frustrated some folks in the US. So when Beerensteyn struggled to break through despite multiple chances to score in the Netherlands-Spain match, many Americans — including former USWNT star Sydney Leroux — noticed that she didn't take her own advice "to show it on the pitch before you talk."

"One thing we've learned is wait to talk shit until after you're on the podium with a gold medal," Leroux posted on X. "Because now… you're bye too."

Fans took the opportunity to chime in, too:

Beerensteyn and the Netherlands will head home empty-handed — as they have from every world championship in their program's history — while Spain advances to a blockbuster semi-final matchup against Sweden. Fans can tune in on FOX Thursday at 4 a.m. ET (8 p.m. local time) to watch the action unfold in Auckland, New Zealand.
