Well, Brazilian chance to redeem itself in the 3rd place after a shocking 7-1 lost to Germany in semi final did not go well.
The Netherlands got the scoring started immediately and never looked back, coasting to a 3-0 victory over the host country in the World Cup consolation match.
The scoring started almost immediately, as Arjen Robben was taken down in the box by Thiago Silva. The Brazilian defender earned a yellow card -- could've been red -- and Robin Van Persie sent in the ensuing penalty kick.
Daley Blind followed that with a goal after a poor Brazil clearance, so after just 17 minutes it was 2-0 Holland. Not quite as bad as the Germany game, but not good by any means, either.
Brazil found a bright spot in Oscar, who created numerous chances, but never were the Brazilians ever to really get anything of consequence. Holland added a late goal for good measure, finishing off a Brazil side that was probably finished well before the final whistle.
FINAL: Brazil 0 - Netherlands 3 (Van Persie 3', Blind 17', Wijnaldum 90')
