HEAT PUTS A SPANNER IN WELSH TRAINING WORKS

ROBERT PAGE’S Wales squad have had to reschedule their training because of the extreme Doha heat.

The team had been due to start daily sessions at 1.30pm local time, ahead of their tournament opener with the United States on Monday. But mid-afternoon temperatures have been above average at more than 30°C (86 °F), so from today training will take place at 4pm.
