In the light of the reports both in the local and international media about the deplorable incidents during a youth football match at the Storsjocupen tournament, in Östersund, Sweden, the Youth FA categorally distances itself from this team.

While deploring and condemning the incident, the Youth FA and Malta FA confirm that the team in question is not licenced by the same associations and no permit was requested or issued by either the Youth FA or the Malta FA for their participation in the said tournament.
