PARIS (Reuters) - Australia's women soccer players have arrived in Paris without some of their luggage, including key medical equipment, that has been stuck in Spain, Australia team chief Anna Meares said on Sunday.

The soccer team, whose first group game is in four days' time against Germany in Marseille, will now need to have some of that equipment replaced locally before the luggage is eventually shipped to France.
