Portugal cancel training after Florida thunderstorms, hours after Atlantic swim

Portugal cancelled their training session and press conference late on Sunday afternoon in Florida because of severe weather.

According to L'Équipe, torrential rain was followed by a brief lull then violent thunderstorms in the Palm Beach area, where Portugal are based, prompting the cancellation. Reporters at the media centre were instructed to evacuate.
