Total collapse, humiliation. Israel’s women’s soccer team took to the pitch in Florence tonight (Wednesday) to lock in its slightly worse Euro 2021 qualifying campaign, as it recorded a dismal campaign, but in practice was further humiliated and suffered an embarrassing 12-0 defeat.

From the very beginning the team did not constitute a considered opponent. After half an hour the result was already 5: 0 for the Italians and in the half it had already become a resounding and humiliating 7: 0. It did not end here – the second half brought with it more goals and finally a painful defeat of 12: 0.

The team led by Gabi Burstein came into the game from fifth place at home when they collected only 7 points after 9 games. The women’s team simply did not face the Italians. It is not clear where all the Football Association’s investment is going, as in the test of the result the ability is light years away to cope with these levels.

By the way, it was the highest defeat of the women’s team in an official factory ever – when the highest loss so far was in 2015 with a 9: 0 loss to Switzerland in the World Cup qualifiers in the home stage. The women’s team surrendered in the past 13: 0 to Poland in 1998, but in a friendly match.

National team coach, Gabi Burstein, “Many young players made their debut tonight against a strong team, built in the last decade and reached the quarterfinals of the last World Cup. The professional team made a recovery plan after the retirement of most of the old players and is working on rebuilding the team. The players who play today The team is very young, talented and has a high professional ability with a desire to succeed and achieve results. “

He added: “I believe that with the right construction and a long-term strategic plan, relying on these young players, while putting them in the framework of regular training several times a week as part of the team and participating in international tournaments, we will achieve in a few years. The fact that we absorbed too quickly made it difficult for us to get into the game and the level differences were clear. This is a difficult result, especially in a campaign in which the team started well and showed positive football and a trend of improvement, and we will have to work hard later to ensure the progress of the industry and the team. The cessation of activity following the corona was also in our backs and a return to the lawn in the last month was not enough to avoid a difficult result. The wisdom is to learn lessons and correct this stumble. ”
