No sex before games, please, says Germany doctor
(Agencies)
Updated: 2004-06-13 09:43 Germany's team doctor has advised players not to
have sex shortly before Euro 2004 games and drink plenty of water instead.
The players' wives and partners are staying at a hotel next door to the
players' near the Algarve resort of Almancil.
Team doctor Tim Meyer says sex immediately before games should be avoided
because of the physical and emotional strain involved.
"I regard sex a few hours before a game as a problem," he told German sports
news agency SID.
Meyer said alcohol and cigarettes were obviously not a good idea but said
there would be no official controls and such matters were the players'
responsibility.
The high temperatures in Portugal meant players had to drink plenty of water,
the doctor said.
"Drink, drink, drink" is what the players should do, he
said.
