Switzerland suffered a blow in preparation for their EURO 2024 Round of 16 tie against Italy, as three computers were stolen from their coaching staff, Football Italia reports.
The Swiss are set to face Italy in Berlin on Saturday June 29, having finished runners-up in their group behind Germany, while the Nazionale were second to Spain.
This is the time when the coaches are going to be working on tactical analysis and evaluating the opposition, but their plans took a hit when three computers were stolen from the team hotel.
It was confirmed to German newspaper Bild by Adrian Arnold of the Swiss Football Federation and that the local police was involved.
However, Arnold assured the data on the computers was “not something we need immediately for a precise analysis.
If this was an attack on Switzerland’s data, it was against the wrong team.”
