Las Leonas chase world title v Netherlands: time, TV, key info | OneFootball

Las Leonas face the Netherlands this Saturday in the final of the World Cup being held in the Netherlands and Belgium. The match will be played at Wagener Hockey Stadium in Amstelveen. It will be broadcast on ESPN 2 and Disney+ Premium.

The Netherlands have established remarkable dominance in the women’s side of this sport over the past half century: the Oranje have won nine of the 15 World Cups that have been played, claimed five Olympic gold medals (as well as two silver and three bronze), and also took 13 of the 17 editions of the European Hockey Championship (including the last five), six of the seven Pro League editions since its creation in 2019, two of the three editions of its predecessor, the World League, and seven Champions Trophy titles.

This Saturday’s match will be the seventh World Cup final played by the Argentina women’s national team. In the previous six, they recorded two wins and four losses. The first three ended in defeats: in Mandelieu 1974, 1-0 against the Netherlands; in Berlin 1976, 2-0 against West Germany; and in Dublin 1994, 2-0 against Australia. That was followed by two victories over the Dutch: on penalty strokes in Perth 2002 (after a 1-1 draw) and 3-1 in Rosario 2010. In Terrassa 2022, the Netherlands got their revenge and won 3-1.

The Argentina women’s field hockey team will play the World Cup final against the Netherlands this Saturday. The match will begin at 11 a.m. at Wagener Hockey Stadium in Amstelveen. The national side will be seeking its third title, following its triumphs in Perth 2002 and Rosario 2010. The Dutch will be going for their 10th crown.
