No matter if the campaign of the young Israeli team ends up qualifying for the European Championship or not, Alon Hazan's team, which defeated Hungary 0: 3 tonight (Tuesday), continues to bring a lot of respect and show that the future generation of footballers growing up here can be trusted.
The game against Hungary was a key game for the team on its second place in House 2. Accordingly, Hazan opened the game with high pressure on the Hungarians throughout the first half.
Israel dominated and also gained a justified advantage from Arad Bar's goal, but Gandelman missed from a good position and failed to increase the advantage.
With the opening of the second half, Arad Bar scored the second of the team in front of the polished eyes of Avi Luzon, who knows that any such goal of the young talent in the team uniform can arouse interest in him by scouts and possibly make him the next exit of Maccabi Petah Tikva.

Hungary did not really manage to give a fight against Israel, even in the minutes that the team got off the gas in the second half, and in added time Zohar Zasno scored the third and signed a great game of the team.
Truth be told, no one believed Israel would be with 5 wins out of 6 games and the same points balance as Germany, which is why the surprise is so great.
A victory over Poland in the next round and Israel will be in an excellent position to qualify for the European Championships.
We were like dreamers.
