Steve Cooper’s Shocking World Cup Playoff Decision Sparks Controversy Ahead of Wales Clash
Former Nottingham Forest and current Brondby boss Steve Cooper has been accused of dropping Bosnia and Herzegovina midfielder Benjamin Tahirovic ahead of the country’s World Cup playoff semi-final clash with Wales on Thursday.
Wales-born Cooper, manager of the Danish club since September 2025, was accused by Bosnia and Herzegovina head coach Sergej Barbarez, who claimed that Tahirovic’s absence “has something to do with his coach’s origin”.
Wales host Bosnia and Herzegovina at the Cardiff City Stadium on Thursday with a home play-off final against Italy or Northern Ireland awaiting the winner next Tuesday.
