Holland winger Arjen Robben has been declared fit to feature in his side's World Cup opener against Denmark.

A couple of days ago, Holland coach Bert van Marwijk stated that the Bayern Munich ace had no chance to be ready for Monday's match.

However, Robben's physio Dick van Toorn said the 25-year-old is physically able to play.

"I think that he can play,'' Van Toorn told German newspaper TZ. "If they do not play him for tactical reasons, okay, but you cannot say he would not be fit."

Robben didn't travel to South Africa along with his country's contingent in order to nurse the hamstring injury he sustained in a 6-1 win over Hungary during a warm-up game.
