"This match should never be played, I've been saying this for 10 years. We will just have to play a good match, but it's also unfair because we have one less day to recover. Chances are, that you lose twice in a row. And in a tournament in which you've played so marvelously well, you go home a loser. You shouldn't have players play a third-fourth-place match, because there's only one award that counts and that is becoming World Cup champion."
