Russia and Iceland were scheduled to meet yesterday, on June 10, on Matchday 3 of Group C of League B of the 2022-2023 UEFA Nations League, but the match was suspended.
The UEFA Executive Committee sanctioned the Russian Football Federation and excluded it from international competitions due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Feb 24, 2022.
In Group 2 of League B, Iceland, Russia, Albania, and Israel were paired. But Russia will not be able to play any matches. Russia will not participate in Group 2 of League B and will be automatically ranked as the bottom team in the group. Consequently, at the end of the group stage, they will be relegated to 16th and last place in League B. Furthermore, will most likely be relegated to the C division.
6 - Fikayo Tomori and Tammy Abraham are the fifth and sixth players to feature for England in a match against Italy while playing for an Italian club side, after Ray Wilkins, Mark Hateley, Trevor Francis and Paul Ince. Known.
7 - England have failed to score in seven of their 15 UEFA Nations League games (47%). Indeed, seven of the last eight times the Three Lions have failed to find the net in all competitions have been in this tournament. Denied.
1 - Wales have only lost one of their last 21 home games in all competitions (W13 D7), and following their loss to Netherlands earlier this week, haven’t suffered back-to-back home defeats since November 2018. Spirited.
