Sean Weissman Celebrates (La Liga)
Sean Weissman is pleased, he also has a reason. With three league goals in Spain and one more goal in the Cup, scored only last Tuesday, he can certainly be happy and happy in part at Real Valladolid. True, he has more to strive for and improve, both on the individual level in terms of goals and on the team level with the club that wants to get as far away from the underground battles, add to that the fact that only this week the Purples signed Kenan Cudrow, another striker to the squad, which means the Israeli can not rest on his laurels Laurel and must continue to work hard to prove the credit he recently received from coach Sergio Gonzalez.
During the past busy week, he vacated Weissman For a conversation with the students of Kfar Galim High School, the high school and boarding school where he studied, in the ‘team talk’ program, which is part ofZONE, The sports magazine for young people broadcast on Channel ONE, in collaboration with Sports Association for Schools. The show will air in full on Saturday at 1:30 p.m.
Weissman opened and told about his feeling in the Spanish league after acclimatization: “It is a great honor to play in La Liga, it was my expectation from the age of 5. In football when you go then you are talked about well and when you do not go then to the other side. I am very happy that I chose to come to Valladolid, it was a very calculated choice. I know that the beginning was not easy in many respects, but I am glad that I got on the wave, it is mainly thanks to hard work. “
Corona: “The team undergoes corona tests every day, in terms of the corona protocol in La Liga they undergo tests two days after each game and one day before each game. This situation sucks because you have all the conditions and everything is gone because there is no audience. Unfortunately we have learned to get used to it and I hope it will pass quickly. Closing football in Israel? I can not judge but it was a very wrong decision, I am happy that they brought back the leagues now, it is important that they bring back the national, youth and children because this is our future “.
A year before Weissman, another Israeli striker from Austria arrived in Spain, Mons Dabour, who has since parted ways with Sevilla and moved to Spanish Hoffenheim. Weissman referred to a friend of his from the team: “My good friend Dabour, he suffered from bad luck, with the general manager and the coach. I did the considerations and exams, I knew it was a group that suited me and was right for my situation. “For me, I could have made a leap to a higher level group, but I did not want to, I wanted to reach a group that suits me, to be based on it and from there not to stop and go to a better group later on.”
“I remained a fan of Maccabi Haifa, I would not change anything”
“The truth is that I did not take the shirt of one of the Barcelona or Real players at the end of the game,” Weissman continued: “My wife was even a little angry with me because of it. I was terribly busy with the result and football, so I have a debt for her for the next game against them. “
Did Maccabi Haifa miss you?
“I do not want to say missed, I am a believing guy and thanks to that I am where I am today. Things could have looked different, I’m glad what happened, happened that way. I would not change anything, it is a thing of the past, I remained a fan of Maccabi Haifa and I want it to succeed and I look forward. What was, was and was good. “
The difficult childhood he went through and how it affected him: “My mother did everything for me, all I have is her and I am happy that I can bring her happiness. My childhood shaped my personality. ”
The first goal in La Liga: “Everything goes through my mind at that moment, I waited for this moment very much, sucks that it is without a crowd, I thought straight about the family and my wife who sits at home and not in the stadium, but screams at home and that is my goal, to make the family happy and give pride to the State of Israel.”
The winning goal he scored: “It was a super important game and we got air from the bottom, after the game I saw a lot of Spaniards doing Shema Yisrael for me. It’s a big victory, I’m happy about the sanctification of the name and who will let me continue to do it.”
On his celebrations that have become a thing of the past in Valladolid: “In the first goal, I was so waiting for him so I wanted to signal to the fans who supported me so much that I am here for them, I arrived and you have nothing to worry about, hear Israel accompany me throughout my career, this is my belief and I believe is nothing. “Crazy where it got to, the fans here love it and enjoy it, ask me to keep doing it.”
Fatherhood: “I get excited every day, go to bed to get up for her in the morning, it’s the best thing I’ve done in my life, she and my wife it’s all for me, waiting for the sky to open so the family can come and enjoy it because except my mother no one saw her and it’s not an easy situation ”.
The fact that he plays on Fridays and Saturdays despite being very close to religion: “I have never played on Friday nights and this is what happens to me for the first time. I do all the transplants I can, if it’s to be without a phone, I have a Shabbat gentile who drives me to training. I pray that there will be no more games on Friday. “
Even before signing with Valladolid, Weissman had conversations with the owner, the Brazilian Ronaldo, and it turns out that these conversations were not the only ones he had: “He comes to training, we talk a lot, it’s fun, the right to talk to him about football, especially when he is the owner. For me he is the greatest striker in history and that is the best thing that could have happened to me. After the duo he went into the locker room and said to me ‘you really are a good pioneer ah’, I told him ‘yes for me you brought me’, and we laughed and hugged, it was a happy moment ”.
The post in question against the children’s stars: “There have been several such incidents. I think it’s not a place to say things like that, they can do what they want, it’s their life and no one judges them, it’s their right but I think we should maintain modesty, we lost it a bit in our country and it hurts to see especially that these are teen stars. I hope it will improve in the future, and we will be able to differentiate ourselves from everyone else. “
“Everyone says that the year is 2021 and that we need to move forward, but we are the Jewish people and we are the chosen people, so we must act accordingly. Everyone who responded to me thought in the same opinion as me, it is not from a judgmental, petty place, but the discourse in the country should be a little different especially when it comes to children, privacy and modesty should be maintained. The message for children? There are things that should not be taken out. “At home they will behave the way they want, there are a lot of cyberbullying, it is sad to see that children end their lives because of someone who boycotts them and I hope we do not see these things again.”
The most fun player to play with: “In Austria I had a contact named Michael Lindel who is everything a striker wants. In Israel, I must mention that his name goes before him is Eran Levy who I enjoyed being with for half a season. The most fun was playing against Sergio Ramos, it was the biggest experience I have had so far, it was fun to see how intelligent and focused he is in the game. There was a ‘trash talk’ too, he asked Paul not to whistle so I told him there was no Paul, he told me I would not get the ball after me, it’s another experience to take forward. “
The aspirations further: “My next goal is to get to a bigger team, but right now the goal is Validolid, another five years? Let’s say a league in the top 5 with a team in the top 5 “.
