ST. PETERSBURG, Russia (AP) Late buses and busy roads are messing up Cameroon’s pre-match plans in Russia.

Cameroon coach Hugo Broos tells The Associated Press ”the traffic in Moscow is a disaster.”

Broos detailed Confederations Cup transport issues affecting his players at a delayed news conference Wednesday.

It started 30 minutes late at the St. Petersburg stadium where Cameroon plays Australia on Thursday.

A team dinner started at 10 p.m. Tuesday after its official bus to training was also late arriving at the hotel, then got stuck in traffic.

Broos says it’s ”really unpleasant” to eat so late and disrupt players’ schedules.
