Israel Football Association May Review Coach Ran Ben Shimon's Future
The Israeli national football team suffered a significant 3-0 defeat against Ireland in the UEFA Nations League on Sunday, following a previous 3-1 loss to Austria last Thursday. All three goals against Ireland were scored within the first 25 minutes of the match, which took place after a turbulent period leading up to the game. Coach Ran Ben Shimon's team is currently at the bottom of their group with zero points and a 6-1 goal difference. Austria leads the group with six points, while Kosovo and Ireland each have three.
If Israel finishes last in their group, the Israel Football Association will reportedly review coach Ran Ben Shimon's position. Ben Shimon's current contract extends until 2028, but the association is considering a change if the team continues to underperform in the ongoing campaign. The team has four remaining matches: against Kosovo on October 1st, Ireland on October 4th, Kosovo again on November 14th, and Austria on November 17th.
