Minister of Justice Yariv Levin has responded to controversy surrounding alleged curses directed at him during a football match at Bloomfield Stadium, footage of which circulated on social media. Levin clarified that he was not expelled from the stadium, stating that a single hateful individual shouted at him. He asserted that attempts to select who can enter the stadium based on political views are contrary to the spirit of sportsmanship.
Levin explained that after halftime, he rose to get a drink as he does at every game. At that point, someone filled with hate yelled at him. He emphasized that he returned to his seat for the second half and watched the entire match. "It is shameful that there are people who think the stadium belongs to them privately and that they will select who enters it based on political positions," Levin stated.
He further commented that such behavior is the opposite of the spirit of sports and will not deter him. Levin noted that many fans greet him with affection every week, and while some offer advice or criticism, that is acceptable. He believes most attendees are focused on the game and the team's victory, not on his presence.
