Swedish soccer players will not be required to take a test for the coronavirus before practice sessions or matches. Players will instead have to fill in a self-assessment form each morning before arriving at training or a match. The club doctor will then assess whether the player is healthy enough to take part. The Swedish league says the principle in the country is that only people who are feeling so ill that they must visit the hospital get a ''full-scale corona test.'' A decision is expected this week on whether the Swedish league can start next month.-AP
