One team, a shared dream.
These words appeared on the huge sign spread on the walls of Shlomo Insurance Stadium.
The players understood the size of the hour, the fans came to support despite the winter weather, and the young Israeli team tonight (Thursday) played a great game against Poland, which ended in a 2: 2 draw.
The dream is still alive.
True, a victory over the Poles would have put Alon Hazan's team in a great position to take first place at the expense of Germany, and would probably have taken the Poles out of the race, but it should be remembered that the best runner of all houses automatically qualifies for the Euros. .
The goal in the opening minutes of Adrian Bendiczak, a Pharma player, was so unnecessary, and he rolled close to an easy goal, after the defense fell asleep.
The team woke up and got into not bad situations at all, but failed to achieve the equalizer.

The second half opened with a storm.
Liel Abda scored a great goal that drove Israel and the crowd crazy.
The Blues' control was absolute and as the minutes went by it was clear that Hazan's players would be able to equalize.
And so it happened, when Ido Shachar found the head of Gandelman, who had completed a makeover.
The end of Podgorano and Liel Abda had to score from good situations but missed and on the other hand, a minute after Abda’s miss, the Poles went out for a lethal outburst that ended in a disappointing draw.
The status quo at home is maintained and the Israeli team is still ranked second, but if it wants its chances of qualifying for the Euros to increase significantly it will have to surpass itself next week against Germany - the current European champions.
