Secretary General Håkan Sjöstrand writes in a statement to the newspaper that the union's increased costs and reduced income end up at around SEK 6.5 million "in an already very strained economy".

The men's national team's match against Russia was moved from Friends arena to Moscow due to travel restrictions for some countries.

And the U21 national team's international match against Armenia was moved to a neutral level in Poland for the same reason.

“The costs of travel and subsistence to Russia amount to almost one million kronor and the lost audience income to almost 4.5 million.

The move of the U21 international to Poland, where SvFF will be responsible for hosting, will also end up with at least SEK 800,000, but will probably end up with all certainty when everything is ready for upwards of one million kronor, ”writes Sjöstrand.

SvFF's representatives are critical of the Swedish government, which has not returned to the desire to get an exemption for football players, which exists for other working groups.

Now they are trying to get a return match against Russia in Sweden in the future.

- We will do what we can to make it a return match without setting the time for it, Pettersson says.

The Swedish Football Association lost revenue of around SEK 20 million in September, due to the Nations League matches against world champions France and European champions Portugal being played without an audience.
