Switzerland’s preparations for its Women’s Euro quarterfinal clash with Spain was thrown into disarray on Tuesday when the team had to cancel a training session due to sickness within the squad.
Less than half an hour before the session was due to begin, the Swiss football association messaged media covering the team on WhatsApp to say that it had been cancelled.
“Today’s planned training session has been postponed until tomorrow. The background: In the past few days, some players have felt the symptoms of a cold,” the message said.

The host, which came second in Group A to make the knockout stage, are set to meet reigning world and Nations League champions Spain in its last-eight clash in Bern on Friday.
