"It's a shame that Iceland chose to play against Israel. It welcomes its crimes" - voila! sport.
An Icelandic populist and BDS activist attacked the association in one of the country's leading media outlets: "Israel is committing heinous crimes. Iceland has already lost" The Israeli national team will meet the Icelandic national team on Thursday evening for a big battle in which the winner will qualify for the playoff final for promotion to Euro 2024. The Israeli coach referred to the war in Gaza and then sounded a little more conciliatory, no other official in Iceland expressed himself politically regarding the meeting.
