Denmark sweat over Zimling's toe
Posted Saturday, June 09, 2012 by YAHOO Sport
KIEV (Reuters) - Key midfielder Niki Zimling remains an injury doubt ahead of Denmark's opening Euro 2012 game against Netherlands in Kharkiv on Saturday, although scans revealed he had not suffered a broken toe.
Zimling was taken to hospital after limping out of Friday's training session but the sports website of Danish newspaper Berlingske Tidende reported on Saturday that a scan revealed no fracture.
The midfielder is expected to play a key role against Dutch enforcers Mark van Bommel and Nigel de Jong in their Group B clash.
The Danish Football Association was tight-lipped on Saturday, saying: "“We do not provide news on a match day".
Should Zimling be ruled out, he will most likely be replaced by Jakob Poulsen.
