Well, the purpose is in the title of the game.

To consolidate rankings

To eek out more money and entertainment

To give a sense of closure

But primarily money

do people really watch a meaningless consolation game? Shouldn't they be better off just going home?

sorry, but maybe you're right. it's for a financial incentive

How is it meaningless when it is about winning the last medal or not?

I'm sure the citizens of the respective countries may hold some interest in the game. Also gamblers would have interest in the game too.

On tv probably not, but if you bought a ticket to the World Cup and you had a seat at that game, you'd probably go for the banter.
