World Cup LIVE: Raheem Sterling back in England for training as Ronaldo's private chat emerges

Frank de Boer doesn't believe the Netherlands will reach the World Cup final, but instead backs Brazil to beat Portugal and claim a sixth title.

Ahead of his country's quarter-final against Argentina tonight, De Boer shared his thoughts on the game that came before - Brazil v Croatia.

He told Sky Sports: "In my prediction for the World Cup, I put them [Brazil] first and Portugal in the final, so it can still happen. They have a great team.

"Even if you stop Neymar, then they have Vinicius Jr, Raphinha; so many great players who can make a difference... Richarlison.

"So I think they are the team to beat but they might have a bad day and we will have to wait and see what happens with Croatia. They are very solid and experienced with Modric as captain."< /p >
