Haim Revivo Proud of Son Roy's Impressive Spanish League Debut
Former Israeli soccer star Haim Revivo expressed pride in his son Roy's performance during his debut for Elche in Spain's La Liga. Roy Revivo assisted twice in Elche's 3-1 victory over Espanyol on Friday, showcasing the skills that led Elche to sign him on the final day of the transfer window. The match saw Espanyol reduced to 10 players in the sixth minute.
Haim Revivo, who himself played in Spain for Celta Vigo, told Sport 5 that while the three points were most important for the team, he was pleased his son demonstrated his attacking abilities despite the early red card for an Espanyol player. "The road is still long and difficult, but this is an enjoyable start. I am proud of him," Haim Revivo stated.
The transfer of Roy Revivo to Elche marks a familial full circle, as his father also played in the Spanish league. The win marked a positive start for Elche, though the team faces a challenging season ahead.
