A letter addressed to the federation's president, Terje Svendsen, on behalf of the continental football body's secretary-general, Giorgio Marketi, said Norway was one of the most problematic countries in terms of local government restrictions and border closures.
Marketti noted that UEFA has made an exception for the Norwegian national team's home game in the UEFA Nations League with Austria (1: 2). An official from the Continental Football Association said he was aware of negotiations with the authorities to extend the exclusion period.
The letter also referred to the match between Molde and Karabakh in the third qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League. ".
Faced with pressure, the NFF, in turn, sent a letter to the local government. The written appeal states that travel restrictions and quarantine rules in the country make it difficult for national teams and clubs to participate in UEFA tournaments.
It should be noted that the main and extra time of the Qarabag - Molde match in Cyprus ended in a goalless draw. The Norwegian team, which played more accurately in the penalty shootout (6: 5), qualified for the playoffs.
