IA little less than a year ago, Guy Luzon, former coach of Standard and current coach of the U21s of Israel, no longer had the strength to talk about football. The war between his country and Palestine had taken a new dramatic turn following the attacks of October 7, 2023, while it already leaves little breathing time in the daily lives of those who face it, as close as possible to horror.

Today, while the pressure is still very high in the Gaza Strip, Tel Aviv and its surroundings have found a relative serenity. Football has resumed its rights a little, even if not all of Israel’s teams are still authorized by FIFA to host international matches on the territory. The Israeli Espoirs will therefore also face in Hungary (in Gyor), Germany, Estonia and Kosovo in their qualifying group for Euro 2025 where they are in last place with zero points.
