Winter woes for Denmark as rain stops training

Winter woes for Denmark as rain stops training

Published Jun. 15, 2010 1:19 p.m. ET

Denmark has canceled a training session because of rain at its team camp in Knysna.

The Danish federation says a two-day downpour has left its training ground soaked. The players were supposed to practice outdoors Tuesday morning, but worked out in a gym instead.

The winter weather is also creating other problems for the Danes.

While the squad returned to Knysna after Monday's 2-0 loss to the Netherlands in Johannesburg, a truck carrying the team's uniforms was held back by snow that closed a mountain pass.

The federation says the truck was expected to arrive Tuesday afternoon after a 12-hour delay.
