The Romanian Football Federation has informed the International Football Federation (FIFA) that the game pitting the national squads of Romania and Denmark, slated for March 26, 2017 as part of the preliminaries for the 2018 World Cup, will be played in Cluj, western Romania.



In another move, the International Football Federation has launched a disciplinary investigation into the incidents caused by the fans during the match between Romania and Poland on November 11. FIFAs Disciplinary Committee decided that Romanias national team can play the next fixture against Denmark in front of its fans, although not on National Arena stadium in Bucharest.



This will be Romanias second match played on Cluj Arena in the current preliminary campaign, after 1-all draw against Montenegro in the match played in September. In March, Romania played a friendly game against Spain, which ended in a blank draw.



In news from international football, Deportivo de La Corunas striker Florin Andone has very good chances of winning the Romanian Footballer of the Year Award in 2016. Andone had an excellent run with Cordoba in the first half of the year, but his team was relegated. As of July, Andone was signed by Deportivo, and has scored 6 goals in the last 6 matches. Andone scored in his clubs 2-nil win against Osasuna Pamplona. He has 12 caps for Romanias national team ever since being first drafted in 2015. Born in 1993 in a village in northern Moldavia, Florin Andone has played football only for Spanish clubs.
