Israeli Footballers Solomon and Issat Secure Victories in English Leagues
Israeli footballers Manor Solomon and Lisb Issat achieved significant wins in their respective English league matches on September 5, 2026. West Ham United, featuring Solomon, secured a dominant 3-0 victory at home against Derby County. Solomon started the match and played a solid role, contributing to his team's second consecutive win. The goals for West Ham came from Jarrod Bowen, Joelinton, and Edson Álvarez, securing three points and placing the team in the top eight with eight points.
In another match, Bristol City, with Lisb Issat, staged a dramatic comeback to defeat Burnley 2-1. After a goalless first half, Burnley took the lead in the 56th minute. However, Bristol City equalized in the 82nd minute from a corner kick, and then secured the dramatic win in stoppage time with a long-range shot. This victory propelled Bristol City to fourth place in the league standings with ten points.
These wins for Solomon and Issat follow a disappointing result for another Israeli player, Daniel Peretz, whose team Southampton failed to secure three points in their Championship match earlier in the day. Solomon received a positive rating for his performance, including key passes and successful dribbles.
