Summary of Argentina's 0:3 win over Jamaica, including a double by Leo Messi (Sport 1)
Many events took place last night in the game of the young team that advanced to Euro 2023 after a victory over Ireland in penalties.
One of them, which was talked about a lot, was the note that Daniel Peretz came with to the penalty shootout.
Those around the doorman made it clear that he followed the intuitions and analyzes he had been working on for the past few days, but the delay in reading the note was purely psychological.
"Daniel didn't even delve deeper because he knew what the analysis of the penalties was even before," explained those around him, "he opened the note and read mainly so that the player in front of him would be afraid."
Despite the psychological aspect of the team, the Irish penalty kickers were indeed analyzed - a task entrusted to the analyst Liron Glatt and the goalkeeping coach Victor Buchnik.
"One of the kickers we thought would kick was out, so we had surgery on four of the kickers," Bohnik told Walla!
Sport, "In 90 percent of the kicks we were right where the kick would go, but in the end it was Daniel with his intuitions."

Bohnik, who came to the youth team together with Guy Luzon, worked with Peretz for the first time and added: "I don't know if he really read the note or just played with the towel to get into the players' heads, it's his and in the end it was also luck and God was with him. Kartsev's penalty went Under the stomach of the Irish goalkeeper and Daniel managed to stop the Irish penalty - so sometimes it's also luck."
Bohnik understands that it is possible that Peretz will not be part of the youth team in the future and it is possible that even in Euro 2023 he will only make it to the second game due to the Euro qualifiers for mature teams.
"There are good goalkeepers like Omer Niraon and Sharif Kiuf who have a lot of potential," said the goalkeeper coach, "we will deal with whoever it is, there is no doubt that Daniel Peretz is a gifted goalkeeper and very different from the average Israeli player."
