Kosovo* needed a 3-0 win in Romania to have any realistic chance of topping their Nations League group.

With the game 0-0 in the 90th minute, they walked off the pitch and refused to play.

If it is judged to be Romania's fault the game is abandoned, they will get... a 3-0 win. Image The Kosovo* team have been ordered to return to the pitch within five minutes.

🇺🇸The USA football team's official Twitter page posted a picture of the flag of Iran without the crest in the middle, in support of protesters in the country ahead of their World Cup match.

Unlike Serbia, they so far haven't been charged under FIFA's Article 11. USA Twitter subsequently deleted the tweet and is now using the official flag of Iran again.

Croatia fans held up this flag aimed at Canada goalkeeper Milan Borjan.

"Knin 95 - Nothing runs like Borjan."

Knin is Borjan's hometown and the flag refers to the victory in the war over Serb separatists which saw Borjan and most Serbs from Croatia driven from their homes. The flag is of tractor manufacturer John Deere - a reference to Serbs in Croatia being forced to leave the country in refugee convoys on tractors during the Croatian Army's Operation Storm in 1995.
