I think we'll be ok with a win on Sunday so. Portugal should take one of the top five positions with their final fixtures, Poland will probably slip out, and we'll be in the middle somewhere.
It remains to be seen what happens with the Armenian fixtures.
In Group 7, Norway have also had their final fixtures cancelled - https://www.fotball.no/landslag/norg...linger-avlyst/
And Gibraltar's final fixture against Cyprus is also cancelled: https://www.cfa.com.cy/Gr/news/40717As a result of the government's updated austerity measures, all of Norway's age-specific national team gatherings will be postponed in November. J15, G15, J16, G16, J17 and J19 all had planned gatherings, in addition to the U21 national team.
- The infection situation in both Norway and the rest of Europe has worsened recently, and we have taken into account the government's advice to limit travel. We want to take our share of responsibility and thus postpone all measures for age-specific national teams, since these require extensive travel. In addition, a number of other meetings and events are postponed, says Secretary General Pål Bjerketvedt.
This includes the U21 national team's match away against Gibraltar next Friday.
- We consider it an increased health risk to travel to Gibraltar now, and can not put ourselves in a situation that can increase the risk that we can not complete our top leagues, Bjerketvedt says.
The match of our National Team of Hope in Gibraltar on November 18 will not take place.
Following a previous UEFA decision to cancel the match Gibraltar - Norway (November 13), it canceled two other matches concerning the seventh group of the qualifying phase of the European U21 Championship.
Specifically, the matches Gibraltar - Cyprus and Norway - Belarus, which were scheduled for Wednesday, November 18, were canceled.
The cancellation of the matches was done because the results of the above matches in case the teams followed the program normally, would not differ anything in the group score in terms of qualifying places.
In this way, the players are certainly more protected by their movements in the difficult conditions that prevail.
It is noted that we had cancellations of matches at the level of Hope in other groups of the qualifying phase.
Our away match in Portugal, which is claiming the qualification together with the Netherlands, will normally take place next Sunday, November 15th.
