Ireland's U-17 women's national team won against Isreal in the match valid for the second round of the European qualifiers. The challenge held at the "Air Albania" stadium, in Tirana, ended with a clean 3-0 victory for the Irish girls.
But what got attention was neither the game nor the result. One move that caused quite a stir was when the girls of the Irish national team turned their backs as the Israel anthem began to be played.
It was widely rumored that this happened in protest against the genocide instigated by the Israeli government in Gaza, but the Football Association of Ireland has reacted immediately, denying everything, even giving their verdict.
" The Football Association of Ireland would like to correct a misunderstanding that our Women's Under-17 National team had when they turned their backs during the Israel national anthem before their match at the UEFA European Women's Under-17 Championship , in Tirana.
"Both teams were facing the main stand as the Israeli national anthem was being played and then the girls of Ireland turned to face their flag, as is the tradition among many Irish teams ," said a spokesman for the side. Irish.
É assim que o mundo deve tratar os Genocidas ⤵️
