Third Place: Belgium vs England

[ilikecheese]

Is anyone even remotely bothered?

Meh. Belgium vs England II at this tournament.

Do the manager's make wholesale changes or do they actually want to win?

Iirc third place match in 2010 between Uruguay and Germany was an absolutely superb match.

Think that yes the managers will make pretty large changes but those players will want to win - if only to try and make a claim that they should have been played more earlier in the tournament and to try and stake a claim for the future.

Hope they both lose.

deffo a weird one as twice now these two have to meet in a dead rubber within the same tournament.

hopefully they'll turn on the style and we get a fun thriller. 4-2 to the Belg.

 

[LinekersLegs]

Oh god yes.

I’ll always like them, they made this summer fun after a dreary Everton season.

 

[Mozza1987]

..Belgium reserves have already beaten England reserves in this tournament. The players will want to come home now.
