Daniel Vorko Starts for Beitar Jerusalem Against AEK Larnaca Despite Fasting
Beitar Jerusalem is set to face AEK Larnaca this Thursday in the first leg of the second qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League. Ahead of the match, a surprising lineup decision was made by Beitar's coach. Although Daniel Vorko, along with teammates Sean Weiseman and Ziv Ben Shimol, had been fasting before the game and was expected to start on the bench, Vorko was included in the starting eleven.
Vorko will play in midfield alongside Noam Motta and Boris Inyo. The attacking trio consists of Omer Atzili, Yarden Shoa, and Eugene Ansah, who replaces Weiseman in the lineup. The defensive line features Nana Antwi, Gil Cohen, Brian Carvalho, and Yarden Cohen. This lineup adjustment highlights the coach's trust in Vorko despite the fasting condition.
The match marks an important step for Beitar Jerusalem in their European campaign, as they seek to advance further in the Conference League qualifiers. The game is scheduled for the evening of July 23, 2026, with coverage by Sport 5.
