Beitar Jerusalem Fans Meet Club Legend István Pisont Ahead of Vienna Match
Ahead of their crucial Conference League qualifier second-leg match against Austria Vienna on August 13, 2026, Beitar Jerusalem fans in Vienna experienced a special moment when club legend István Pisont joined their bus to the stadium. The Hungarian former player, who signed with Beitar in winter 1996 and played for two and a half years, helped the club win two Israeli championships in 1997 and 1998 before moving on to Eintracht Frankfurt. Pisont later returned to Israel to play for Hapoel Tel Aviv, M.S. Ashdod, and Bnei Yehuda. Now 56 years old, Pisont received enthusiastic cheers and warm affection from the Beitar supporters, who hope his presence will inspire the team to overturn a 2-1 deficit in tonight’s match at 21:30 and advance to the playoff round of the Conference League qualifiers. Hundreds of Beitar fans traveled to Vienna to back their team in this pivotal fixture.
