Tre high jumpers used shoes in the EM qualifying round that are on a list of banned equipment. Sweden filed a protest and demanded that the final feature 15 jumpers.

But the protest has been rejected and Maja Åskag will miss the final.

According to the Finnish newspaper Ilta-Sanomat, Ana Peleteiro, Dariya Derkach and Neja Filipic competed in shoes that are on World Athletics' list of banned equipment in the triple jump.

Sweden filed a protest and demanded that the final field be expanded by three jumpers, which would give Maja Åskag a spot in the final.

The protest was later rejected.
