WELLINGTON (Reuters) - The United States have only shown a glimpse of their potential and must start "clicking" on the pitch, co-captain Alex Morgan said, as they prepare to face their 2019 final foes the Netherlands in Wellington on Thursday.

The Netherlands are out for revenge four years after the Americans beat them 2-0 to lift the trophy and two years after the U.S. knocked them out on penalties in the quarter-finals at the Tokyo Olympics.
