The Israeli team lost to the Czech Republic last night as a result of two mistakes in defense (2: 1), but among the players the feeling is that they are in a hurry to judge them.
"We've been living with each other for 50 years from one day to the next, that's why we are not progressing," said captain Beavers Natcho who added: "With a drop of patience, we can do something with our football."
When asked about the future of Willy Rotensteiner and Miri Regev's statement to Eyal Berkovich ("Until you apologize to the Likudniks, you will not be a national team coach"), the captain clarified: "Keep politics away from the national team. We have all sectors and religions "The beautiful Land of Israel. Politics is not for us."
Natcho is no longer young, but he is optimistic about the future when it comes to the squad: "There are excellent young players. The link and attack are very good, it's part of the process and it also requires patience. We veterans try to help and guide."
Striker Eran Zehavi added: "Expectations from the team do not match the ability. On the one hand they say the team is weak and the players are not good and then the Czech team comes here and are disappointed not to win. The media says we are not good and then disappointed. They can not cut the team and then say we should win The Czech Republic. "
A PSV Eindhoven player added: "We need to be humble and understand that if Israel goes up to a big tournament it will be a big surprise. We are not European lions, but we give everything. I would like the team to love unconditionally because the players also love the team without "I had campaigns that I did not score, but I still kept coming and believing that this is the strength of the team. I want every Israeli who sees the team to love it when it loses."
