Germany and Uruguay both were one goal shy in the World Cup semifinals, ending their chance of winning another trophy The World Cup.

On Saturday in Port Elizabeth both will have something to play for in the third-place match. Uruguay especially, which will try to beat Germany for the first time ever while at the same time securing its best finish in 60 years. This is Germany’s second straight third-place game. They beat Portugal to finish third in 2006.

Diego Forlan has four goals in the World Cup, which ties him with Germany’s Thomas Mueller and Miroslav Klose and leaves him one behind Wesley Sneijder of the Netherlands and David Villa of Spain for theGolden Boot. It’s unclear though if either Forlan or Klose who both picked up injuries will be ready to play on Saturday. Klose needs one more goal to match Brazil’s Ronaldo as the all-time goal scorer in World Cup history with 15.

Uruguay hasn’t finished higher than fourth since they won the World Cup in 1950. In the third-place game in Mexico City in 1970, it lost to West Germany.

They have never beaten Die Mannschaft, losing six and drawing two in eight previous meetings in all competitions. Their last time they met in the World Cup they played to a 1-1 draw in the group stage, in Mexico, in 1986.
