A few hours before the start of the last match of the Swiss team’s group stage in the Nations League, the Ukrainian Football Association announced: The match cannot be played on Tuesday, as they learned from UEFA. A little later, the Swiss Football Association (SFV) also confirmed the cancellation.
The decision by the European Football Association was made after the Lucerne canton doctor quarantined the entire Ukrainian national team, including staff. Uefa itself has yet to make an official statement. The SFV team arrived at the Swissporarena on Tuesday afternoon and will hold a training session instead of the game.

Does the game take place on Wednesday?
A postponement until Wednesday would be possible under UEFA regulations, if Eastern Europeans can have at least 13 players (including a goalkeeper) available within 24 hours. In the room there is apparently a late nomination of several national U21 and U20 players by the Ukrainians.
In case of cancellation, the disciplinary committee of the European association would intervene. An obvious decision would be a 3-0 forfait defeat of Ukraine.
In the match between Switzerland and Ukraine it would be against relegation from League A of the Nations League. The Eastern Europeans are three points clear of Switzerland before this final group stage match.
