Danny Amos was the first footballer to post on the subject, noting that he contacted her to congratulate her, and wrote: "In recent days the discourse is around the mighty and important step of Sapir Berman. It is important for me to say a few words on the subject, as a footballer, not just as a person, as a father. I really wish it would be better here. As soon as it was published I contacted Sapir and wished her success and of course I made it clear to her that we support and we are here for her.
"I wish we could all accept Sapir's choice to share the brave step I will continue the work I love so much and I ask that you accept me and prove that we are people of love and support and not people of hatred. '
"It is clear to me that there are those who support and there are those who are less and I hope those who are less still knew how to respect Sapir when she is on the field in their team's game, because our responsibility as human beings is to educate for good and acceptance and not for hatred even if it is not our way or our opinion.
"We have a lot to learn from this story of Sapir who is revealed in a world that is very chauvinist with great courage and surrounded by support and love from her workplace and surroundings.
" We must not forget Sapir's private life before and after, but this step is important Violence or homophobia on the pitches. Football remains and is meant for the enjoyment of us all. That you the audience will come and enjoy and we the players on the grass will give you this wonderful experience. And we all understand as the years go by that there is a very important social added value. Let's together continue the change and just as racism and violence are not part of our sport, so is homophobia.
"Sapphire, I wish you lots of happiness in your life and in the process you are going through. I salute you for the courage to go with your truth to the end. Good luck!
"Come on we'll finally be back on the pitches without restrictions and in the life of after Corona, let's go back to enjoying the best in our football, in spectator displays and enjoying this thing called football that we love so much."

Sapir's courageous exposure is a point of light and a great inspiration not only for Israeli society in the world of sports but also for those whose voices have not been heard and still suffer from discrimination, violence and oppression just because of who they are.
"We will continue to work together with the Football Association and the relevant elements against hatred and arrogance in Israeli sports, in Israeli society, to respect the whole identity of a person as he is. Thanks to Sapir, an important step has been taken today for a tolerant, accepting and safe society for the proud community in Israel and for each and every one of them. "
