Muric Out of Kosovo Squad - Ipswich Town News
Town keeper Aro Muric has been ruled out of Kosovo’s Nations League play-off second leg against Iceland having picked up a knock in last night’s first leg, which his side won 2-1.
Muric, his team’s man of the match according to Sofascore, played the full 90 minutes against the Icelanders, but will now rejoin the Blues and miss the return leg, which is being played in Spain.
The 26-year-old, who has taken his caps total to 43, only returned to training over the weekend having recently had an injection for a shoulder problem which had been hampering him for some weeks.

Blackburn Rovers 1-0 Ipswich Town - Match AbandonedTown look set to face a return trip to Blackburn Rovers later in the season after this afternoon’s game was abandoned after 80 minutes due to a waterlogged pitch with the home side 1-0 up and with the Blues down to 10 men. Jacob Greaves was shown a straight red card four minutes after the break for hauling down Yuki Ohashi, then Rovers skipper Todd Cantwell netted a penalty on 59, but the heavy rain had made the game increasingly farcical the longer it progressed and in the 80th minute referee Stephen Martin took the players off and then 25 minutes later abandoned it entirely.
