Kosovo wanted to finish the match with Romania. Why did they change their mind?

The players of the Kosovo national team wanted to finish their UEFA Nations League match against Romania, but they changed their minds and refused to return to the field.

Details: According to Digi Sport, the team reconsidered their decision after seeing photos and videos from the stands of the National Stadium in Bucharest. The Kosovars believed that these materials could serve as grounds for a technical defeat for the Romanian team. UEFA representatives were in contact with the Kosovo team but were unable to convince them to continue the game.

Reminder: The fate of the match will be decided later. It was interrupted at 0-0 after the Kosovo players left the field during added time in the second half. Reports indicate that the guests complained about pro-Serb chants from the stands and that fans threw objects at Kosovo goalkeeper Arijanet Murić.

Prior to this, a conflict had occurred on the pitch between Romanian player Denis Alibec and Kosovo’s Albion Rrahmani, which escalated into a scuffle between players from both teams.
