Failing to reach the World Cup final, Netherlands and Brazil still have one step left on their journey as both are facing up against each others for a third place play offs this Saturday.
Although previously questioning the importance of playing for third place title, Dutch head coach, Louis Van Gaal still has one target that he wanted his side to achieve, which is maintaining their unbeaten streak in this World Cup.
Being eliminated by Argentina by penalty shoot out, Netherlands can consider themselves unbeaten as they haven’t loss any matches in full 90 minutes or even extra time so far.
Meanwhile, Brazil themselves are also keen on redeeming themselves after their horror 7-1 defeat by Germany which continue to hunt them up till now.
Getting most of the blame for Selecao failure, head coach, Luiz Felipe Scolari remain confident with his future as he has no plan to step down even after the third place match.
Scolari believes that one game can’t be used as a reason to judge his work as the tactician felt Brazil have improved a lot under his guidance
