I thought the Indian takeout guy threw some LSD in my curry last night..Brazil had it coming though.

So depending on what happens tonight, my guys are up against an unchained Germany or a frustrated Brazil this weekend...Oh well: I hope to meat our national next door neighbours again this sunday. (seriously: is there anyone who is insterested in the match for the third place?)

No. Not even the teams themselves or their supporters. Once they get knocked out, they just want to get the fuck home.

Unfortunately for Brazil, they're already home. Cant be easy going out and playing again after a drubbing like that.

A lot of teams play mostly 'fringe' players who havent had much game time in the tournament.

The players are fresh. And in a 23-man squad theres usually about 5-6 players who havent got any game time to that point.

I get what youre saying - there's a risk of losing the game (although its less of an issue if both sides do it) but the third place game is a bit of a dead rubber. Its a good achievement to finish third in the World Cup but even most diehard football fans would find it hard to tell you who won the various Third Place Play Off matches down the years.

Reply #121 - Jul 9^th, 2014 at 10:11pm That 0-0 game was almost as boring as Germany's romp. For such a compelling tourny with great action. Not much of a Final Four. I sure hope the final game doesn't come down to a shootout. Just play until you drop.

I totally get why it was a boring game for the casual spectator. Thing is: they were more or less each others equals on the pitch (maybe Argentina was slightly better, but not by much) and each team had one player that had to be stopped (Messi and Robben obviously). Both teams succeeded in that. With so much at stake, football matches turn in to chess sometimes. I had a good time last night, though of course I would have loved to see my team in the final.

And thanks Voodoo, but I guess that's the role the Dutch play in these tournaments: they come close to the gold medal very often, but never grab it (save that one time in 1988 when we became European Champions). Each league in any team sports has those squads. Compared with some big football leagues you have that role for Tottenham Hotspur in England, or Schalke 04 in Germany..
