That’s what I’m talking about.
I did not see the game – I was at a wedding – but well done to the boys! And I am even reading that Israel outplayed the French and should have won. But I am calling the glass “half full”, since the result would have upset the French, and that, in itself, is reason to celebrate.
It sounds like I missed a great spectacle. Not only was the game exciting, but apparently the crowd jeered during the playing of the French national anthem, and booed the cowardly, bald goalkeeper Barthez. Can you blame them?
I am also happy that an Israeli-Arab – Walid Badir – scored Israel’s goal, as was the case in last week’s game against Ireland. This only serves to bring Israeli Arabs and Jews closer together.
