The Israeli rugby team, today (Saturday) achieved its first victory in the World Cup qualifiers, after beating Slovenia 0:16, in a game held in Ljubljana.
The team competing in the No. 1 regional house, climbed on the field in freezing cold of 0 degrees and heavy snow that covered the field minutes before the opening whistle, and despite all the difficult weather conditions, the Israeli team manages to return with a victory from frozen Slovenia.
Although the ball bounced from the frozen hands and passed many from side to side, captain Omar Levinson and captain Adrian Reinstein managed to get the fresh and together with a great defensive play, the Blues and Whites under coach Kevin Musician, achieved the big win.
Next Saturday (9.4 at 14:00), Israel will meet Croatia (44 in the world) for a tough test in the new field of Kibbutz Jezreel and this phase will end at the end of the month (30.4) against Cyprus at home, with only the first ranked team advancing to the intermediate stage (tropical level).
