Sweden have been awarded a 3-0 victory over Denmark by UEFA following last Saturday's abandoned Euro 2008 qualifier.
German referee Herbert Fandel abandoned the match in the closing stages with the scores level at 3-3 at Copenhagen's Parken Stadium.
He had awarded a penalty to Sweden and given a red card to Denmark's Christian Poulsen when a spectator came on to the pitch and assaulted him.
Denmark have been fined £41,000 and must play their next four home games at least 250km away from Copenhagen.
Sweden lead Group F ahead of Spain in second and Northern Ireland in third. The Swedes now have 18 points, five more than Northern Ireland, who have a game in hand on the group leaders.
