Born in Virginia but living in Amsterdam, 17-year-old midfielder Lily Yohannes faced an identity crisis: Should she play for the Dutch or the U.S.?

This past April, Yohannes accepted a senior U.S. call-up for the first time, and in early June she made her debut at age 16. Last month, she committed to the U.S. program, coincidentally just in time for the Americans to play the Netherlands in the Hague in their last game of the year on Tuesday (2:45 p.m., TNT, truTV, Universo).

Lily Yohannes has travelled back to the Netherlands to face the country she plays in, just days after turning down the chance to play for their national team.

Lily Yohannes is keen to put any controversy of her decision to pick playing for the US women's national team over the Netherlands behind her.

The 17-year-old explains how she came to the decision to represent the United States as she returns to the Netherlands for an international friendly.
