The Malta National Team’s friendly international scheduled for Monday 7th June against Kazakhstan has been officially called off.

The Kazakhstan Federation notified the Malta Football Association that due to the fact that the Kazakh contingent scheduled to fly to Austria for the friendly match faced problems obtaining the necessary visas, they were forced to cancel the international friendly match which was scheduled to be played at the Lavanttal-Arena in Wolfsberg.

The Kazakhstan National Team were scheduled to fly to Austria on Wednesday, two days prior to the fixture.

The decision could possibly trigger some changes in the Malta National Team 12-day training camp schedule in Austria which will be communicated in due course.

The next fixture for the Malta National Team is against Kosovo on Friday 4th June at the Wörthersee Stadion in Klagenfurt.
