Germany midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger could be doubtful for the European Championship semifinals because of a lingering ankle injury.

Germany plays either Italy or England on Thursday in Warsaw.

Schweinsteiger revealed in an interview Sunday that his right ankle hasn't healed properly after an injury in February and that it's creating problems in the tournament.

The Bayern Munich player has an important role in central midfield.
