World Cup: Holland v Slovakia preview

Giovanni van Bronckhorst is convinced Holland can go all the way at the World Cup provided they play at full strength in every match.

Feyenoord's veteran midfielder is set to start in today's last 16 showdown against Slovakia in Durban.

The Oranje head into the encounter at the Moses Mhabida Stadium on the back of three straight wins in Group E.

"I do believe we will become world champions," said Van Bronckhorst.

"There is a great atmosphere in the group and it's good to hear that so many people are supporting us back home."

Slovakia already sent a warning to the Dutch by eliminating champions Italy on Thursday with a 3-2 triumph to finish second in their group.

"I saw their game against Italy," said Van Bronckhorst.

"They played really well and deserved to win that game.

"Slovakia are very good at defending, very good at counter-attacks and that is what they did against Italy.

"It's going to be a tough match to win but we all want to be world champions so we have to beat them."
