The third-place game is played between the losers of the semi-final round in the World Cup and is generally forgotten about – so what is its purpose?
Belgium will face England on Saturday to play in the World Cup's third-place play-off fixture, which awards the winner the bronze medal of the tournament.
The third-place fixture is generally a forgotten and obsolete event, as neither team would be keen on playing in it – they would much rather be in the final, and go home as 'losers' of the tournament regardless.
It is played between the teams who were eliminated in the semi-final of the competition.
