Against all odds, the France-Israel match, on November 14 on behalf of the League of Nations, will take place at the Stade de France. This Friday morning, the Minister of the Interior Bruno Retailleau once again confirmed it on X, a few hours after the very serious excesses which followed the European Cup match between Ajax and Maccabi Tel-Aviv, including the violent attacks on Israeli supporters in the streets of Amsterdam.
“Some are calling for the relocation of the France-Israel match,” writes Bruno Retailleau on At my request, the Prefect of Police, Laurent Nunez, is making the necessary security arrangements for this match to take place at the Stade de France, as usual. »
Despite the hypotheses mentioned here and there of a smaller stadium or behind closed doors, Retailleau had already confirmed that the meeting would take place at the Stade de France without restriction. The context surrounding this conflict has been burning the world of Football in recent days: at the beginning of the week, pro-Palestinian activists demonstrated at the French Football Federation (FFF) to demand the cancellation of the match and this Wednesday, the Ultras of PSG displayed a “Free Palestine” banner which caused controversy before the Champions League match against Atlético de Madrid.
