After gunshots in Brussels, the game was called off at half-time.
The score was 1-1 when the game was called off for security reasons.
UEFA has now declared that the half-time score will be “confirmed as final” and that each team will receive one point.

“Each team receives one point, and the Group F standings are updated accordingly.”
“Any suspension is deemed served, and single yellow cards remain in effect.”
“In making the aforementioned decision, the Executive Committee noted that it had proven impossible to play the remainder of the match on the following day.”
“Given the circumstances, both the Royal Belgian Football Association and the Swedish Football Association explicitly stated their desire not to play the remaining match time and to accept the result at the half-time interval (1-1) as final.”
“The outcome of this match has no bearing on Group F qualification because Belgium is already mathematically qualified for the UEFA EURO 2024 final tournament (along with Austria) and Sweden is mathematically eliminated.”
“The respective fixtures do not allow any date to be used in the upcoming November international window, when the preliminary group stage of the competition must be concluded, to be followed by the play-off draw and final tournament draw,” UEFA said in a statement.
