Sweden attracted controversy when they forbade fans from seeing the matches insideBaltiska Hallen, fearing anti-Israeli violence.^[16] Several Swedish politicians, including the mayor of Malmö and the head of the Green Party, said that they wanted to cancel the match instead of having an Israeli team play in the city, but after it was strongly pointed out that Sweden would suffer a forfeit loss and immediate elimination from the Cup tournament, the prospect of a cancellation was nixed. A proposal to move the matches toStockholm fell through because of limited preparation time.^[17] Israeli player Andy Ram condemned the switch, calling it a "stupid decision".^[18] On the 7 March a breakaway group from an anti-Israel protest attacked police outside the stadium as the match was ongoing inside.

The Davis Cup fined the Swedish tennis federation $25,000 and ordered them to pay an additional $15,000 in what would have been gate receipts. The city of Malmö was also banned from hosting Davis Cup matches for the next five years, and Sweden will lose its choice of venue if it happens again, being required to guarantee that future matches will be open to the public.^[19]
