3rd / 4th Place Game
Personal belief is that this is potentially the most pointless game in football.
Its like saying to 2 teams 'hey ... yes your hearts are broken not making it to the biggest final in football, but wanna play a game anyway for no reason?' Should be scrapped in my eyes and let the players who were so close to their greatest day just head home.

Thought the Italy-England game in 1990 for 3rd/4th was a really good match

Utterly pointless affair, but I guess it must have a bearing on the world rankings?

The 2014 one was hilarious, watching Brazil get smashed again after the 7-1.

The only thing it may determine is whether Harry’s Kane wins the golden boot.

I genuinely cannot remember a single final score from a 3rd/4th World Cup match.

Also agree. Instead we should just keep replaying the semi final until England win.

Didn't Shilton mess up in the 1990 3rd place game (trying to dribble past an Italian striker?) and wasn't that his last game for England?

If it is us against Belgium, I wonder if both teams would play their B teams again lol

Had a dream last night that Belgium beat Croatia in this game...

Though Platt's header from Dorigo's cross was a much better memory

Yep, totally pointless game.
A much better idea would be all the teams that go out in the group stages play their own knockout cup with the winner qualifying for the next world cup...... No more days with no football! |

But I also had a dream around February 2016 that Leicester beat us 2-0 in the Community Shield...during the FA Cup Final against Man Utd, I thought the Matrix was real...

Seriously pointless game and when the players just want to get back to their native land or holiday they have to endure this. We don't have the two losing semi finalists playing each other in the FA cup so why do this?!

Bilic said the other day that in Croatia they still celebrate their 'bronze' medal from 1998
I guess the smaller countries might respect it a bit more but ultimately it's a losers final. Belgium players having to hang around all week like a bad smell. Win today please England

Croatia with half the population of London is a smaller nation is it not?
They have some good players and could win tonight so no real disrespect just stating a fact.

I was talking more on a football level. Not just you or the BBS by the way but a lot of people seem to be seriously underestimating Croatia for tonight.
