The complex security situation in which Israel finds itself has also slipped into the link between the players of the national team.
The WhatsApp group of players has been buzzing since the wave of attacks this week, and especially since the last one last night in Bnei Brak, during the team's game against Romania.
PSV Eindhoven striker Eran Zehavi wondered in conversations with the players "Why did the Arab players not condemn the attack?"
And was answered by others that "the situation is felt and painful for everyone."
But Zahavi is not the only one.
Other players on the team are disappointed with the conduct of the players from the sector and say unequivocally: "The Arab players had to convey a message, just as they conveyed when things touched the Temple Mount a few months ago."

In the full message, Zehavi wrote to the team players: “Hi friends.
After two games and after we have finished the professional side, I ask and expect all the players, without exception, Arabs and Jews, to condemn terrorism in the State of Israel.
We have power in social networks and we need to call for silence and help even if it is in the smallest percentages.
Each of us has an influence, not to get carried away with diversion and such and such political things.
Thank you very much, that we will know quieter days.
See you in June.
Love you".
He later added: "It hurts to see that none of the Arab players have raised anything for any of his reasons what it means for us as a team I do not know the truth that I was very disappointed!".

"Perhaps scared? If Abu Mazen and Mahmoud Abbas condemn it, it seems to me that you had an opportunity here to show commitment and unity around the team and the State of Israel, terrorism does not differentiate between religions and anyone can find themselves in such a situation (ask Sari Falah). That you do not do one by one and one by heart, a good day for everyone. "
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
