An article about Murat and Khan Yakin (Sport1)
Disappointment in the football association with the ability that the Israel national team displayed yesterday (Tuesday) in the 3:0 defeat in Switzerland, but there is also faith and expectation that the continuation of the Euro qualifying campaign will be different.
At the next gathering in June, the team will meet Belarus and Andorra and the association believes that 6 points in both games will change the picture and give a professional and moral boost to continue.
The head of the information system of the football association, Shlomi Barzel, said in a conversation with Walla!
Sport from Switzerland, before the team boarded a flight back to Israel: "Nothing was lost and nothing was gained. We knew it would be close, difficult and complex. No one thought we would tear the house apart. Proportions. We lost to Switzerland away. Although with less good football, but still Not the destruction of the house. Everything depends on us later."
Yesterday was a black day for Israel's youth teams.
All three failed in their missions.
Gadi Bromer's boys lost to Serbia, Ofir Haim's boys ended in a bad draw against Latvia and therefore did not advance to the European Championship, and Guy Luzon's young team also lost to Switzerland in a friendly match.
Barzel said: "We are in the Mondialeto and Youth Euros this summer, there is a rare group of players in the national teams right now - the boys, youth, young women, seniors - so in the next decade there is a very high chance that there will be more final tournaments. You don't change in two years from a football country where appearing in such finals is a thing It is rare for him to have permanent residents in the finals. They maintain a healthy and sober connection with reality. No manic depression."
"In the next decade there is a very high chance that the national teams will have more final tournaments."
