BRUSSELS — UEFA says the result of the European Championship qualifier between Belgium and Sweden will stand after the match was stopped this week when two Swedish fans were killed before kickoff. The game was called off at half-time with the score 1-1. Both the Belgian and Swedish federations had asked to keep it as the final result. Investigators are still trying to determine the motive for Monday night's attack, which occurred not far from the King Baudouin stadium where the qualifier took place. Belgium was already qualified for the tournament to be held in Germany next year before it took on Sweden.
