Shock for Romania! Yet another national team from Europe contested the victory at the green table provided by UEFA

A national team from Europe contested the victory that UEFA gave to Romania at the green table.

Sweden is one of the countries in Europe that is unhappy with the decision taken by UEFAwhich gave victory at Romania’s green tablescore 3-0, in front of the selected team from Kosovo, after the guest group abandoned. The Nordics had their plans turned upside down by the victory of Romania, who took the best place in League C.

Sweden, unhappy with the fact that UEFA gave victory to Romania in the game with Kosovo

The Swedes won the game with Azerbaijan, score 6-0, and they finished the Nations League group with 16 points and a goal difference of +15, but Romania’s victory over Kosovo gives the “tricolors” the status of the best national team in League C. The hierarchy is important for the 4 national teams who will fight for a place at the 2026 World Cup thanks to their performances in the Nations League.

The Swedish coach, Jon Dahl Tomasson, put UEFA on the wall before the match with Azerbaijan, because the continental forum was to give the decision only after the conclusion of the group stage of the Nations League.

It is a fight between us and Romania. Of course it’s a little weird. Romania’s match against Kosovo has been suspended and UEFA has to make a decision on the result. It’s about fair play here and we should have known the decision before playing, but this is not happening. However, we know one thing, that we have to win and score more goals than Romania has done so far, so we have our chance”, said Tomasson, before Sweden – Azerbaijan.

Kim Kallstrom, manager of the Swedish Football Federation, accuses the negative impact of the result from Romania – Kosovo

Incidentally, Kim Kallstrom, even after UEFA gave the verdict in favor of Romania, criticized the decision given by the continental forum, because it directly affects the Swedish national team, which was sure of the status of the best team in League C until providing the decision.

After yesterday’s clear victory, I waited for UEFA’s announcement regarding the result of the Romania – Kosovo match. Now a decision has been made, which for us is negative.

It’s sad that things that happened off the field have an impact on the sporting outcome and affect both teams involved,” said Kallstrom, as quoted by sport.ro.
