All the latest from EURO team camps

Russia (Richard Van Poortvliet, @UEFAcomRichVP)

Russia have arrived in Warsaw ahead of UEFA EURO 2012 and they received quite a reception as around 500 fans and well-wishers gathered outside the Bristol Hotel to greet them. Most of the players got straight off the bus and headed into the hotel, though Roman Pavlyuchenko did stop briefly to sign autographs, much to the delight of the waiting public. Some of the players were mingling inside the hotel, and I had a brief chat with Pavel Pogrebnyak who was in good spirits.

The team arrived a little later than expected, as their flight was slightly delayed; however, they are becoming used to such inconveniences. On Friday Russia only arrived in Zurich two hours before kick-off for their friendly with Italy, as once again their flight failed to take off on time. The team are staying in the old historical centre of Warsaw, and they will have time tomorrow morning to take in their surroundings with their first training session in the Polish capital only scheduled for the evening.
