After Brazil slipped to their second consecutive loss of the World Cup in a bitter 3-0 defeat to the Netherlands in yesterday's third and fourth placed play-off, senior Brazilian players apologised to the nation's fans.
Chelsea midfielder Oscar, who proved to be one of the country's best players at the tournament; apologised to fans after the game: "What can you say. We came here hoping to win third place but we didn't, it wasn't our day. We lost, there's nothing to say.
"We lost a goal in two, three minutes and we were chasing the game.
"We are all very sad, the people are very sad, but we tried and we tried till the end."
Thiago Silva also took a moment to say sorry and pointed to the fact that the fans in the stadium even booed the Brazilian side after 90 minutes:Â "We need to apologise to the fans, they booed us at the end, which is normal, they have feelings too. It's very tough."
