The Sami Ofer studium was white and blue
The pre euro championship games had begun and two days ago (Sunday) the first game of the Israeli soccer team was held at the Sami Ofer stadium in Haifa. More than 30,000 people came to cheer the team. It's been a long time since the Israeli team had won so the fans were shocked and thrilled for seeing this amazing game. The Bosnia team was humiliated by the Israeli team, only three months after they played in the Mondial.
At the 36th minute, Vermot scored a goal, the second one was by Demari at the 45th minute and the last one and the most amazing one, was by Eran Zahavi at the 70th minute. Eli Gutman, the team's coach said "we were smart, I'm so proud of the players!"
Even the Prime Minister, Bibi Natanyahu, was at the game in the Aquarium with his son and the Minister of Finance, Yair Lapid, was at the VIP sits with a blue and white cowboy hat.
The next games will be against the Belgium team and Wales on March 2015.
