Although most eyes will be on the Nations League final tonight, the third and fourth place play-off has the potential of being just as exciting, with Germany and France fighting for third spot in this year's tournament.
However, it will likely be two sides deflated after both lost their respective semi-finals by just one goal - Germany losing 2-1, while the French went down 5-4 in that incredible game against Spain.
Julian Nagelsmann's Germany side thought they might have booked their place in the final, with a Florian Wirtz goal setting them up for a positive result, though goals from Francisco Conceicao and Cristiano Ronaldo ended the German dream of winning it in their own country.
As for Les Bleus, their supporters went through a rollercoaster of emotions, after being down by four goals at two separate points during the match.
A despairing night for the French faithful suddenly started to turn around, with goals from Rayan Cherki, Daniel Vivian and Randal Kolo Muani all in the last 11 minutes and additional time took the score to 5-4.
Unfortunately for Didier Deschamps' side, they were unable to get the fifth, which sent Spain into a clash with Portugal.

Germany v France team news
After both sides suffered disappointing losses in the previous round, both managers may want to make changes for this one.
There were no injuries for the Germans, however Nagelsmann used all five subs in an attempt to change the outcome of the semi against Portugal.
The likes of Serge Gnabry, Niclas Fullkrug and Karim Adeyemi all came off the bench to try to get their side a goal.

As for France, after conceding five goals against Spain, Deschamps may want to change a centre-back combination of Ibrahima Konate and Clement Lenget, with Mike Maignan behind them, as Lucas Hernandez replaced the Atletico defender after 72 minutes against the Spanish.
In attack the French have many options, with Rayan Cherki and Randal Kolo Muani both scoring after coming off the bench.
Do they deserve a start after making such an impact off the bench and nearly getting their side back into the match after looking almost down and out?
