The manager of the Finland women's national football team, Outi Saarinen, apologized for mistakenly including former player Stina Ruuskanen, 51, in the lineup for an upcoming match against Serbia. Instead, she intended to call up 23-year-old defender Nanne Ruuskanen. This mix-up, not discovered until after the submission deadline, was met with humor by Stina Ruuskanen, who expressed readiness to play. The incident caused disappointment for Nanne, who couldn't participate in the game, although she handled it well, according to Saarinen's statement.
I'm definitely ready if the call comes! Just yesterday I was playing in a hobby league match ... so my game feel is good.
Nanne was, of course, disappointed but took the news very well considering the circumstances.
I am very sorry for the mistake.
This mistake highlights the challenges of roster management and the importance of accuracy in team selections.
