Ribery and Nasri sit out France training session

Franck Ribery is in a race against time to prove his fitness ahead of France's Euro 2012 quarter-final showdown against Spain on Saturday.

The Bayern Munich ace pulled up during a light jogging exercise at an open training session, immediately bending down to clutch his left heel before limping off the field.

Also absent from practice was Samir Nasri, who was told to rest in order to shake off a minor knock picked up in Les Bleus' 2-0 loss to Sweden on Tuesday.

Ribery had picked up the injury before joining up with Laurent Blanc's men in Poland, having been fouled by Didier Drogba in Bayern's Champions League final defeat by Chelsea.
