So 2 players have covid so that cant field a team? What bullshit

Why is that bullshit? Norway had to forfeit their game against Romania the other week because one had contracted Covid. Later 3 or 4 players had gotten covid. You know how a pandemic works, right?

One contracted it but they were refused to travel and all made to self isolate meaning they had no players able to travel (and I'm guessing didn't want to call up a B side)

Didn’t have time to scramble a B side for the Romania game, but fielded a B team in the Austria game the week after.

that’s correct. Norwegian government refused to let them travel. Big case in the news and the Norwegian FA were pissed off because of that. Later on 3 more players tested positive for COVID. The Norwegian FA came down from their high horse pretty fast. Later on they scraped together a “B-team” who traveled to Austria
