In Solomon's living room: a glimpse into the life of Fulham's Israeli star, episode 7 (Sport1)
There is no doubt that the Mondialeto lottery that was held yesterday (Friday) invited the Israeli national team to some difficult games, but the opponents are also really not easy on the team in blue and white.
The Colombian media began to prepare for the meeting scheduled for the opening round of Group C in the tournament that will be held in Argentina from May 20, and naturally they marked Oscar Gloch above all.
"The Hebrew surprise", they called Israel in the newspaper "El Espectador".
"The opponent in the opening game made a historic campaign in the Euros until the age of 19, when they finished as runner-up after an impressive display under the baton of Ofir Haim," complimented the Israeli team in Colombia.
"The current generation of footballers recorded an unprecedented achievement in Israel, in only its third appearance at the Euros. Attacking midfielder Oskar Gloch was the main star and was signed by Red Bull Salzburg, Austria, where he hopes to finally establish his position. The defender Stav Lemkin, the winger Ahmed Salman and the midfielder Ili Madmon are also coming to the tournament in Argentina as players who must be taken into account."
They don't take it easy.

"Football Red" also praised: "Israel is really not a Cinderella. Don't make the mistake of thinking that this is a simple opponent because this is its debut in the U-20 World Championship, this is a team that comes as no less than the European runner-up, after only succumbing to the powerful England after extra time in the final. Gloch is the big star, not only because of the ability he showed in the Euros, but also because his talent led Salzburg to purchase him from Maccabi Tel Aviv when he was only 18 years old, and even aroused interest from Barcelona. Another senior player is Ili Madmon, from Beitar Jerusalem
. Ace Colombia focused on the best player of each team, and wrote about Gloch: "Number 10 is responsible for creating ideas in the Israel team.
This is a connection that surprised Europe and took the team to the Euro final while knocking out strong France.
Gloch excelled at Maccabi Tel Aviv, and then was signed by Red Bull Salzburg where he already made seven appearances and scored two goals.
He will lead the Israeli national team in the upcoming World Cup."
