Video: Strip poker allegations cloud Spain's Confederations Cup preparations

Spain trained in Fortaleza, Brazil in preparation for their Confederations Cup semi-final against Italy on Thursday.

Cesc Fabregas and Roberto Soldado participated in a separate session from the rest of the squad as they battle to recover from injuries in time for the game.

Earlier in the day, team captain Sergio Ramos denied that some squad members induldged in a strip poker party, which led to valuables being stolen from their hotel rooms.

The allegations were made by Brazilian website Globoesporte.com

In addition, a local city newspaper Diario do Nordeste reported Spanish players arrived at their hotel with several women following their 3-0 victory over Nigeria.

The players allegedly threw television remote controls and bars of soap from their hotel room windows.

In the light of these rather bizarre allegations, Spain head coach Vicente Del Bosquewill be hoping his squad is fully concentrated on reaching the Confederations Cup final.
