    Yeah, we might as well. Lets just give the world a show of total attacking football.

    The pressure is all on Brazil anyways after that 7-1 disaster, they have to save some kind of face.
    We have nothing to lose, 3rd or 4th place was way above expectations.

    I will say it'll be really nice to beat Brazil again and get 3rd though :)

    Does the 3rd place match go into another 30 minutes of ET if score is tied??

    I really dont see the point in that, let em go straight to penalties. Oranje played 30 min of ET against Costa Rica, then again against Argies. And now possibly again in 3rd place match. Thats too much

    .... or it could lineup as

    Cillessen
    Kuyt, de Vrij, Vlaar, BMI
    Wijnaldum, Blind, Sneijder
    Robben, RvP, Memphis

    We'll need to wait and see. I guess van Gaal really wants to win this one.

    Could anyone please tell me why is RVP start ones again ?
    IMO He went to the ghost mode since after the group game.
    Huntelaar must start in that spot,..
    vs Argentina actually that was my point in the first place.
    Yet we see ones again He were weak vs Argie defense,.zero shot or any activity,..
    LVG didin't handle this situation smoothly,. HE entered Huntelaar very late,. and kept RVP too long periods in a very tight game,…

    Anyway,

    I hope If he(rvp) start, He can give his best as Sneijder and Robben way.

    Another wonder is, Why Depay didn't play in the last game?


    Good luck in the third place game. I hope You Guys win the match up.

    2-0 robben,sneijder.

    Hopefully you guys go out on a happy note. Despite what LVG said, I think the vets will play hard. For some of them this could be their last World Cup game. I'm certain Robben, RVP, and Sneijder don't want to go out as losers. A bronze medal is better than nothing!

    Just saw on ESPN that Sneijder picked up a knock in pre-game. Didn't look too bad but he might be out. Guess that would mean Depay in

    edit: de Guzman in. Wtf?

    Jonathan de Guzman starts in place of Wesley Sneijder who has been injured in the warm up.

    Kinda hoped to see Huntelaar finally get a start. What's the point of having RVP start yet again?
