In the World Cup Football, Germany will play Uruguay for the third place at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth tonight.The final will be played between Spain and Netherlands on Sunday. Spain's earlier best show in a World Cup had been a fourth- place finish in 1950, but at that time the champion team was decided after a final round league format. Spain and the Netherlands, both world football's under-achievers, had never won a World Cup. Spain had two European Championships titles, in 1964 and 2008 in their kitty. The Netherlands had been the losing finalists in the 1974 and 1978 World Cup. The Dutch had also won the European Championships title in 1988.
