The Kosovo Football Federation, FFK, has expressed fury over a letter from the world football body FIFA, calling on it to lift a ban on a planned match that it insists is “illegal” in the Serb-run north of Kosovo.
The KFF does not want the top Serbian team Belgrade Red Star playing an unregistered team in northern Kosovo, saying that an unauthorised match must not be played on Kosovo’s territory.
Much to its disappointment, however, FIFA has written to the FFK, saying it “encourages” the FFK to lift the ban.
