Haiti, Kosovo play to 0-0 draw in friendly
Six years after declaring independence, Kosovo's footballers have played their first match at international level, drawing 0-0 with Haiti in a friendly.
The match, approved by football's world governing body Fifa, took place in the ethnically divided city of Mitrovica.
Kosovo is not recognised by Serbia or Russia and is not a member of Fifa.
But Serbia's football association has agreed that Kosovo can play friendly internationals provided no flags are displayed and no anthems played.
The Caribbean state of Haiti, 79th in the Fifa rankings, may be a surprise choice of opposition for Kosovo's international debut, but the game fulfils a major ambition for the Balkan territory.
Foreign Minister Enver Hoxhaj tweeted as the match got under way: "The first friendly international game between #Kosovo and #Haiti has just started. Great day for Kosovo's sport."
Selecting the 22-man squad has been difficult. All but one of them plays football abroad.
Three of the country's best players now represent Switzerland, while Manchester United's Adnan Januzaj, whose heritage makes him eligible for Kosovo, declined an invitation to take part.

Haiti, Kosovo to make history on Wednesday
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti -- Two very distant and distinct countries will unite under the banner of football for an historic international friendly that is sure to capture the attention of the world.
On Wednesday, Kosovo will play its first FIFA-approved match, when it welcomes Haiti to Mitrovica.
The former Yugoslavia territory is bidding to become an affiliate of UEFA and FIFA, hoping that the game against the CONCACAF side can assist in its push for membership.
Following a unilateral declaration of independence from Serbia in 2008, Kosovo has been recognized by 23 members of the European Union and 108 members of the United Nations. It remains, however, unrecognized as a sovereign nation.
