The team from Dublin published dozens of pro-Palestinian posts on social networks, issued special uniforms in the colors of the Palestinian flag that were used in several games, and even collected funds and donations that were transferred to charitable organizations in the West Bank.
Now she wants to take it one step further, and plans to hold an exhibition match against the Palestine national team in Ireland.
Today the team announced that "We have been in contact with the Palestinian Association for several months in an attempt to organize an exhibition game in our home stadium. The talks are at an advanced stage, and we are trying to coordinate a suitable date."
According to the announcement, all proceeds from the "charity game" will be transferred to various organizations in the West Bank.
In addition, the group announced that it had transferred a third payment to organizations in the West Bank in the amount of 8,000 euros - money collected thanks to the sale of the special edition uniforms, which express support for the Palestinians.
