The publication of the Israel national team is an event that always attracts significant attention. For the invited actors, this is a special moment that symbolizes the fruits of the success of their hard work. On the other hand, there are those who were sure to be included in the prestigious list, and for them it is a big disappointment.
We have gathered for you five players who must have been surprised when they did not see their names among the faculty members. Vote in the poll and decide who you think was most worthy of being part of the Israeli team in the opening of the 2022 World Cup qualifying campaign.
Lior Refaelov
Unsurprisingly, the first name that pops to mind is that of the 34-year-old midfielder. Raphaelov, who was named Belgium Player of the Year, had an excellent season in Antwerp when he scored 13 goals and netted 9 in 39 games in all competitions.
Noble Omar
One of the most talked about players of the past year, and not necessarily for the right reasons, is slowly returning to the fitness that has characterized him for most of his career. Noble, who since arriving at Maccabi Haifa last January, managed to score five goals and last night scored a pair of debut goals in green that raised the runner-up to the quarterfinals of the state cup.
Dia Seba
The excellent striker, who became the first Israeli ever to play in the UAE, makes the al-Nasser team corps. In 20 appearances in the team uniform from fourth place in the Premier League, Seva managed to score 5 goals and cook 7 – an impressive power for a player in a new country.
Gabi Knikowski
Maccabi Netanya’s midfielder has been in excellent shape for a long time. But this season, it seems that Kanikowski due to constant make the leap not many are waiting. With 7 goals and 8 assists (leading the league in the category), the player who did not find his place in Maccabi Tel Aviv, is ready for the next stage of his career – whether in Israel or abroad.
Ruby Lewkowicz
When it comes to summonses for the Israeli team, the goal is for the players in the best shape to be part of the squad. Some would say that Hapoel Hadera’s goalkeeper is giving the best season of his career, so it is very possible that Rotensteiner should have taken Ruby Lewkowicz into account.
