Pole Zurawski out of group games
Poland will be without captain Maciej Zurawski for their two remaining games in Group B and possibly the rest of the tournament, if they progress, after suffering a thigh injury in the 2-0 defeat to Germany in Klagenfurt on Sunday.
Croatia, in the same group, saw midfielder Luka Modric miss training with a strained tendon yesterday but the injury is not serious, a team spokesman said.
The 22-year-old, who scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot against co-hosts Austria on Sunday, picked up a knock in their Group B opener.
"Luka Modric is not taking part in training because he has a strained right Achilles tendon but it's nothing serious and he is exercising on his own," said spokesman Davor Gavran.
Croatia, second in the group behind Germany, meet Jurgen Loew's team in Klagenfurt on Thursday before facing the Poles at the same venue next Monday.
France started without striker Thierry Henry, who received a knock in a warm-up game, for last night's 0-0 opening draw with Romania and midfield inspiration Patrick Vieira, sidelined by a thigh injury.
Vieira will stay in France's squad, a team spokesman said.
Brochure tackles cardiac arrest
HEALTH:The Swiss Heart Foundation has published a brochure advising fans how to avoid cardiac arrest at particularly stressful moments during games at Euro 2008.
Called "One-nil for the heart" and available in German, French and Italian, the brochure warns fans of the dangers of stress, increased alcohol consumption, smoking, calorie-rich foods and lack of exercise.
Armchair fans are advised to do a spot of "dribbling" at half-time or to have an exercise bicycle in their room.
"You can drink a lot, but choose alcohol-free drinks, preferably water or cool tea,"the brochure says.
"A red card for too much alcohol, tobacco and heavy, fatty foods," it added.
Dutch splash out as players dwell in lakeside splendour
ACCOMMODATION:The Netherlands must be the top-ranked team at the Euro 2008 finals in Austria and Switzerland when it comes to accommodation.
With their three Group C matches all in Bern, the Dutch have chosen Lausanne, 100 km away, as their base and are staying at one of Switzerland's most luxurious hotels.
The Beau-Rivage Palace will cost the Dutch FA (KNVB) a fortune since the cheapest room is €290 a night and the Dutch party includes about 60 people.
Each room is equipped with wireless internet connection (WiFi), satellite TV, jacuzzi and several other special features that should make the players feel at home.
The players can view Lake Geneva or the beautiful gardens surrounding the hotel from the privacy of their rooms.
If all that luxury results in a successful campaign at Euro 2008 the hotel can also provide the Dutch with a 100-year-old steamer, Le Montreux, for a celebratory cruise on the lake.
140 held over Nazi chants
SECURITY:Austrian police detained 157, mainly German, fans on Sunday in Klagenfurt after the 2-0 over Poland, with most of the arrests made when supporters began chanting Nazi slogans in the city centre.
Polish and German fans, who had travelled in large numbers, also clashed in the city's public viewing areas and needed to be separated by police.
Of the 157 detained, 144 came from Germany.
Local police commander Wolfgang Rauchegger said Austrian and German police detained a group of 140 German fans who had congregated in the city. "They shouted Nazi slogans," he said.
