16 NOV 2024 · In a highly charged Nations League match held at The National Arena in Bucharest on November 15, 2024, the game between Romania and Kosovo was abruptly abandoned after Kosovo players walked off the pitch. The walkout was prompted by pro-Serbia chants from some sections of the Romanian fans, reflecting the tense and complex Balkan geopolitics that often spill into sports arenas, especially in soccer.
