Brazil took a horrible beating from the Germans last time around
On the biggest stage in the world, they flopped.
Without Neymar around to keep the ball in the other half, with his way-better-than-above-average ball skills, Brazilpanicked.
Brazil get Thiago Silva (their captain) back for this game and will look way better on defense. But letting in seven against a team a week ago can't be fixed with the inclusion of just one man, even though it is a big addition.
Despite Van Gaal being opposed to the third place match int he world cup, this doesn't lessen the fact that this will more than likely be the last World cup for the Netherlands best players : Robben, Van Persie, and Sneijder. So i expect these players to start and finish the match. HUP HOLLAND HUP!
Bet: Netherlands Pick +145
