Why who is he anyway?
When Sari Fallah kills the Barcelona brake
Does it make sense for a player from Bnei Sakhnin to step on the Barcelona brake and say he is "done"?
When Sari Fallah criticizes Kalmon Langela, he is actually giving kosher to sports fans to kill their heroes: so what if you're better than me, ya zeros

There has always been this tension, between athletes and sports enthusiasts.
His highlight is the classic phenomenon of a chubby fan with gray work and small ambitions, sitting in his small apartment in the suburbs, watching Leo Messi lose in the World Cup final and mumbling "What a loser".
But one should not go to such an extreme, since in every criticism lies a basic problem, even in a standard interpretation: for example when a coach passed, who repeatedly failed in his work and resume countless league relegations, from his seat in the Middle East not only a professional Champions League surgeon, but even allows himself Visit Thomas Tuchel and Pochettino and give them advice.
When it comes to fans, the problem takes on a different character in the face of emotions, which lead to extremes and extreme reactions, and thus "criticism" tends to turn into anger and rage ("throw this rubbish") or excessive praise ("huge talent").
And often the same "criticism" comes from fans who know that the object of their criticism is much better than them, and yet "he has no idea."
In other words, the absurdity is already the norm: the fact that a man is a clumsy, clumsy, incompetent squat, unable to score a basket in the neighborhood or go around the court without having a heart attack - does not mean for him that he can not look at a two-meter basketball player, a sturdy and skilled athlete And sink and shoot from a distance and play in the Euroleague, and still call out in frustration "What a zero!".

It is not clear to him how Brake makes mistakes?

This week all of these worlds and terms collided in a small response on Facebook.
Sari Fallah, currently a Bnei Sakhnin stopper, reacted to a mistake by Barcelona stopper Calmon Langela in the game against Cadiz, and on the (excellent!) Fan page "Barsamania" wrote: "Langela is fine, a stopper in a team like Barcelona can not access the ball like that in 90 minutes. from him".
Without addressing the question of whether or not Fallah is right about Langela (he is probably right, to some extent), here again the question arises as to how legitimate it is: Does it make sense that a Bnei Sakhnin player, who has never come close to the Spanish league, can teach a Frenchman how to approach To the ball?
After all, with all due respect to Sari Fallah, we have seen him "approach the ball" in a bad way in the past.
In fact, finishes games.
And not in the Spanish league, but against Hadera and Hapoel Haifa of all kinds.
And not because he's a bad footballer, but because that's what happens to defensive players, any mistake they make may turn out to be critical.
In addition, logic expects some kind of collegiality on the part of Fallah.
Little understanding.
identification.
compassion.
After all, he was already there, on the field.
He knows how fragile everything is, how one unnecessary touch can overwhelm a game.
More than that, he was also on the other side, hearing fans and commentators kill actors with dishonesty, exaggerated judgment, casting fates out of anger and lack of empathy - and yet he allows himself to state that "Langela is complete," no less.

It may be that what is jarring is the understanding that Fallah is experiencing the exact same things.
He had probably been cursed in the past (not by the rival's fans, but by his team's fans), raised his head towards the stands to look into the cursor's eyes, recognize a face, feel it - and realized it was an adult who apparently dreamed of being a footballer. Because he believed in his dad's motivation, played in a local kids team and was thrown out at 14 because he is not good enough, and yet right now he gets down on Fallah and curses him and kills him and claims he is “not an actor” even though he would have met Fallah on the field in the neighborhood Impressed by how athletic, fast and sturdy he is.
The brake of Barcelona and the French team does not know how to access the ball?

But what does a fan say to himself when he curses a skilled professional athlete?
That this is his job, that he gets a lot of money for it, that if I had also been training all day I would surely have been more successful, etc. etc.
Fallah also knows that Langala is a player several times better than him, but he expects more from the Barcelona player.
It's all.
Just like us.
In fact, in this little response to a Facebook post, Fallah gives kosher to curses from the stands.
For him it is normal and even natural, this distorted situation, where anyone can kill an athlete, curse, eulogize him, send him home.
For Fallah, once he becomes a fan, all the rules change.
Everything is forgotten, pushed aside.
He is not interested in the gap between them.
It does not matter that I am in Sakhnin and he is in Barcelona.
No decency, no forgiveness, no collegiality, no place to identify.
Were you wrong?
You're done.
enough.
We suffocated.
