The Israeli men’s team convincingly defeated the Iceland team tonight (Friday) in the Silver League 0:3 (14:25, 14:25, 10:25),
It was Israel’s third victory (after victories over the Faroe Islands and Iceland at home held in Iceland).
Following the victory, Israel rises to the top of the home table, with the first two competing for promotion to the Golden League next season. This time the games are being held in North Macedonia (the games were moved from Israel due to the war). Tomorrow the teams of Iceland and Austria will face off at the Israeli home and on Sunday at 19:00 the team will meet the team of Austria. The standouts in Israel today were Ilya Goldrin (with 16 points) and the moralist Noam Ariel.
Itamar Stein The coach of the Israeli team: “Once again, the team showed discipline and knew how not to take their foot off the gas throughout the game. I am satisfied with the order on the field and the way the guys work together. We are looking forward to the game against the Austrians. We are expecting a strong and tough game.”
Noam Ariel The moral of the Israeli team: “It was a good game from our side, we met all the goals we set for ourselves. Not only the victory itself, but also personal and team goals under the guidance of Itamar and the professional team. We are all very happy about the victory, but we look forward to the next game against Austria.”
