Belarus achieved a historic victory in

At this tournament, the Belarus national futsal team achieved a historic first victory by defeating the Slovenia national team. The group matches were held in Ljubljana, having been relocated from Riga due to obstacles set by Latvian authorities who legally banned the match between the Latvian and Belarusian national teams. As a result, Latvia itself lost the right to host tournament matches, and UEFA promptly stripped Riga of both the group stage and the championship final. Our filming crew worked in Slovenia, and correspondent Andrei Kozlov demonstrated that modern sports now operate not by double, but by triple standards.

Context

Earlier, Latvia refused to host matches between national teams for legislative reasons.
