“即便如此，（第三名比賽）在體育運(yùn)動(dòng)中還是有目的的。至少，這是一個(gè)補(bǔ)償?shù)臋C(jī)會(huì)，以慶祝進(jìn)入錦標(biāo)賽最后四支球隊(duì)的成就，”韋伯先生補(bǔ)充道。 A catch by goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic (Croatia) in the match in the group stage.

The mindset back then was to always have gold, silver and bronze medals,” said Paul Widdop, an expert on sports business at the University of Manchester (UK).

“世界杯的起源深受奧運(yùn)會(huì)的影響。那時(shí)的心態(tài)是總是有金牌、銀牌和銅牌，”曼徹斯特大學(xué)（英國）體育商業(yè)專家保羅維多普說。 “這反映在世界杯的組織方式上，類似于以古希臘神話為基礎(chǔ)的四年一屆的世界杯周期。”
