Anti-discrimination group Fare Network says there is "a very high risk" of crowd trouble when Ukraine plays Kosovo in a World Cup qualifier Sunday in Poland. There is confusion over how many Ukraine and Kosovo fans plan to attend. Ukrainian Football Federation spokesman Mykola Vasilkov suggested the 1,000 fans allowed inside the stadium only applied to Ukrainian supporters. Kosovo became a UEFA member in May, joined FIFA a week later and was fast-tracked into 2018 World Cup qualifying. ___Vanessa Gera in Warsaw, Poland, Llazar Semini in Tirana, Albania, and Dmytro Vlasov in Kiev, Ukraine, contributed to this report.
