The FIFA World Cup tournament began a month ago with 32 of the world’s best national soccer teams, and that field has been narrowed down to the final two teams who will face off in the championship match in Rio de Janeiro. Germany takes on Argentina in the final on Sunday, July 13, with game time set for 3pm ET on ABC (English) and Univision/Univision Deportes (Spanish).
On Saturday, July 12, at 4pm ET on ESPN/Univision, Brazil will play the Netherlands in the tournament’s consolation third-place match. Brazil would like a strong showing in this match in front of the home crowd and to take some of the sting away from its 7-1 loss to Germany in the semifinals. The Netherlands would prefer not to play this match at all.
