Depay Backs Van Gaal While Phillips Bigs Up England

The World Cup Semi-Final line-up will be known by tomorrow evening.

Two World Cup quarter-finals are down for decision later today. 

At 3pm, Brazil will look to keep their hopes alive of a first success since 2002 when they take on Croatia. 

This evening, the Netherlands face Argentina from 7pm. 

Dutch forward Memphis Depay has praised the management of Louis van Gaal.


Raheem Sterling could take part in England training today after his return to Qatar.

The Chelsea forward flew back to the UK to be with his family, following a break-in at his home earlier this week. 

England are finalising their preparations for their World Cup quarter-final showdown with France tomorrow. 

Kalvin Phillips says he can't complain about only playing a role from the bench - and believes they can win it.
