MATCH BETWEEN BRITISH LUTON TOWN AND CETINKAYA WAS CANCELLED

The Greek Cypriot Side has again prevented a social event which would take place in the TRNC by threatening that the British team would be given major punishments if they play the match with a TRNC team.

The British team then decided not to play the match after the British Football Federation contacted with officials from the Lutton Town and asked for the cancellation of the match.

The match has an importance in overcoming the sports embargo against the Turkish Cypriots.

English Luton Town is the first English football club which would play a match in the TRNC.
