Dutch play down Van der Sar fears
Holland coach Marco van Basten expects captain Edwin van der Sar to be fit to face the Ivory Coast on Friday, despite missing training on Tuesday.
The Manchester United goalkeeper injured his calf in Sunday's opening Group C win over Serbia and Montenegro but his boss says he should be fine.
"He does have a problem but it is very minor and I am sure he will be available," said Van Basten.
Marc van Bommel, who injured a knee on Sunday, trained as normal on Tuesday.
