3rd place play-off

Saturday 9pm, Brasilia

Hope Brazil put in a performance and win to put that 7-1 defeat behind them.

Two games in a row with extra time for Holland. They might be dead on their feet.

Hopefully a good game anyway

HOLLAND 2
BRAZIL    0

The Dutch are just a much better unit. Worse players, but better team. It may be a carnival atmosphere but the Dutch will prove too strong on the pitch.

"I think this match should never be played and I've been saying this for 10 years," Van Gaal said after his team were knocked out by Argentina on penalties.

"It is unfair we have one day less to recover than our opponent so that is not fair play either," he added.

"But the worst thing is I believe that chances are that you lose twice in a row. And a tournament in which you've played so marvellously well you would go home as a loser just because you could possibly have lost the last two matches and this has got nothing to do with sports in my view."

"So, in a football tournament particularly not at the last stage you shouldn't have players playing match for third-fourth place. Because there is only one award that counts and that is becoming world champion."

Really? Wouldnt say the Dutch have worse players at all. Ron Vlaar for example put in the type of defensive performance that David Luiz can only dream of. Only Fernandinho, Neymar and Silva would get in the Dutch team.

Are there medals awarded for third place? I must admit, I rarely watch this game.
I tend to agree with LVG. There's no third place playoff in the EUROS. It's an unnecessary game.

Totally agree with LVG, who cares about this game. Its pretty much a friendly as nobody remembers/cares who came 3rd/4th.
The fans will be home, the players all want to be at home/on holidays etc.

You wouldn't be happy if Robben scored 3 goals in this game and won the golden boot!

Apres Match will be better than the match.

2-0 Brasil, Louise scoring and celebrating like a demon with Neymar tattooed on his cock.

Are the Brazilian public not baying for blood from this group of players and management at the moment. I would have said it is as far removed from a carnival atmosphere as it possibly could be.

This game means a lot more to the Brazil players now than the Dutch. If Brazil lose, the fans and media will eat this team alive again for the 2nd time in a few days. In saying all that, I can see the Dutch rotating their team, being fresher and possibly nicking it.

Scolari made a balls of the squad he picked.

Lucas Moura, Coutinho, Miranda, Felipe Luiz, Robinho, kaka are just a few names that could have made a hell of a difference.

Even the last two could have offered more than Fred and Jo.

What's done is done. The Brazilians will go all out for victory tomorrow. Holland will give a few players a run out. Really interested in seeing the reaction of the Brazilian supporters. If it's bad well then the heads could drop and il hand the advantage over to the Dutch

These games are usually high scoring affairs, I'm thinking I might chance a large bet on over 2.5 goals to recoup my losses.

Dutch don't give a f**k for this game and will give all the players who barely played a run out. Brazil will be hell bent on a victory but scared sh*tless too, a very interesting game.
