        The third place final is a joke. The result is meaningless for fans and it must feel like an empty exercise for players who have just lost the possibility of playing in a the actual final.

        The national leagues have made finishing second (and third and fourth) a virtue through prize money and participation in the UCL and the like, but in cup competitions, and especially the World Cup, first is everything, second is nothing. Third and fourth place shouldn’t even be an issue.

            Like everything else in football the third place play-off is all about the money: the winner gets USD 24 mio., the loser USD 22 mio. BTW the winner of the final receives USD 38 mio., the runner-up USD 28 mio.

                  Right on. It's a fun watch AND I don't feel like I'm gonna have a major coronary incident… which is enjoyable in itself.

                                I had the impression the English didn‘t want to score a goal. They gave away so many great chances.

                                  Belgium were playing, England turned up in the 2nd half. Now for the justification of “well it’s a young team. Good preparation for the future etc”.

                                    Second half was great. England fought hard. It was a suspenseful, but friendly game.

                                    And now I advice all Belgians to drink hard tonight, and to sleep in tomorrow, so I have a peaceful day at work  😎

                                          Hey!  They're playing Metallica's opening music (Ecstasy of Gold) at the opening.  That's pretty boss, yo.

                                            Yeah I noticed that too.

                                            France does not deserve the lead in this game.  I feel for Croatia.
