Training session for the Wales team halted due to road accident involving their bus
Wales Women's National Football Team Involved in Road Traffic Accident
The Welsh Football Association (FAW) has confirmed that the Cymru National Team bus was involved in a road traffic accident on its way to St Gallen, Switzerland for the Women's European Championship match against France. Thankfully, all passengers on the bus and in the other vehicle are unharmed.
According to the FAW, the priority is to get all players together and away from the scene of the accident. The team is currently being checked to ensure everyone continues to be okay. Manager Rhian Wilkinson, who was not on the bus as she travelled separately to attend the pre-match press conference, has stated that everyone is okay.
BBC Sport reported that an ambulance was present at the scene to treat drivers of the other vehicle involved. The FAW will provide updates once they know for sure about the condition of the driver of the other vehicle.
The statement from the Welsh FA also emphasizes the importance of getting everyone together and away from the scene to reassess. They also express concern for the driver of the other vehicle involved in the accident.
The Wales players are reported to be okay following the road collision. A training session scheduled for the squad at the Kybunpark stadium pitch was cancelled due to the incident.
The team's game against France is a must-win for them to have a hope of reaching the knockout stages of the competition. A win against France would represent the Wales team's first ever in major tournaments. Should England beat The Netherlands, it could create a huge amount of drama heading into the final group game, potentially making it a straight shootout between the home nations.
The situation is reportedly still developing, and the team is trying to be as clear and transparent as possible. The FAW's priority is to remove the players from the scene and return to the Cymru training base to complete their preparations for tomorrow's match.
The Welsh FA has asked for everyone's understanding and patience during this difficult time. They will provide updates as more information becomes available.
In the meantime, the entire football community hopes for a swift recovery for all those involved and a successful outcome for the Wales team in their upcoming matches.
