Robben: 'Netherlands can win World Cup'

Bayern Munich winger Arjen Robben believes that the Netherlands can win the World Cup in Brazil next summer.

The Oranje finished as runners-up to Spain in the 2010 competition, but Robben has backed his country to secure the title this time around.

"Our final goal is to become world champions in Brazil. It's a realistic target and we won't go there with the attitude to just see how far we can get," he told reporters at a press conference.

"We must survive the group stage and, if we progress, the world title is our dream."

Robben has scored 21 goals in 72 games for his country.
