Netherlands vs. Mexico live stream: Time, TV schedule, how to watch online and more

In what could be one of the highlight matches of this international period, Mexico travel to Amsterdam to face the Netherlands, a face off that represents a rematch of their controversial round of 16 matchup in the last World Cup. A pair of controversial refereeing decisions gave the Dutch a late equalizer off a free kick and a stoppage time penalty that put them over the top, and Mexico manager Miguel Herrera is itching to even the score.

He'll do it with the help of forward Carlos Vela, who is finally returning to the national team after years of refusing callups following a suspension for his involvement in a party that also led to large fines for much of the Mexico squad at the time. The Netherlands, who are trying to overturn some poor recent form, will be without Robin Van Persie and Jordie Classie, who are missing this match with hamstring injuries, as well as key defender Bruno Martins Indi, who was too ill to be called up.

Whichever side is the favorite is hard to get a read on. Talent-wise, it's difficult to question that the Netherlands are the better side, but they've been playing very disjointed football since the World Cup. Mexico, on the other hand, are riding three straight wins that followed a hard-fought draw against a Chile side that's become a darling of many around international football. This is a tough one to call, and a draw seems like a perfectly reasonable outcome.

The Porto midfielder is quickly becoming a driving force in Mexico's midfield, and if anyone is going to be able to take advantage of the Netherlands' depleted midfield, it'll be him. His work rate and passing eye will be key to Mexico unlocking Holland's defense, and he'll also likely play a role in trying to keep Wesley Sneijder contained as well.
