Netherlands winger Arjen Robben has said that he is proud of his side following their 5-1 win against Spain this evening.

The Dutch came from behind to stun the World Cup holders in the first meeting between the two sides since the final four years ago in South Africa.

Robben has admitted that while the result will provide the squad with a confidence boost, they will not allow themselves to get carried away.

"We are happy. I'm very proud of my team, it's such a young team," Robben told SporTV. "It's only the group stage, so it's not revenge.

"We haven't won the cup, it's not 2010. We have to keep our heads cool. We should take advantage of this win. Maybe it will give us a good boost of confidence but it's just the start.

"We keep training well and working hard. We will prepare for our next game against Australia, that's all we can do."

Netherlands meet Australia in their second Group B match next Wednesday.
