Irish players observe moment of silence during Israeli anthem
Irish national team players staged a protest before their UEFA Nations League match against Israel in Hungary. During the Israeli national anthem, the players wore black armbands, bowed their heads as a sign of rejection, and did not shake hands with Israeli players after the anthem. This came amid protests against holding the match in Hungary due to political reasons, despite hundreds of Israeli fans being present in the stadium. The players reaffirmed their stance that the match should not take place, and goalkeeper Jason Knight raised questions about the decision to cancel the game or reconsider its rescheduling.
