Matuidi a doubt for Spain clash, says Blanc
Blaise Matuidi
Injured midfielder Blaise Matuidi is a doubt for France's Euro 2012 quarter-final against holders Spain in Donetsk on Saturday, coach Laurent Blanc revealed on Wednesday.
The Paris Saint-Germain player injured his thigh prior to the tournament and has not played a single minute in either France's three warm-up matches or their three group-stage games in Ukraine.
"It was getting much better but the day before yesterday (Monday), he injured himself again," said Blanc at a press conference on Wednesday.
"It's an occupational hazard. He might be able to play in the quarter-final, but we can't be sure yet."
