PALESTINIAN PLAYERS EMOTIONAL AT WORLD CUP QUALIFIER #palestine

November 23, 2023

Powerful and emotional moment during the playing of the national anthem at the World Cup qualifier between Palestine and Australia. Imagine having to play a ⚽️ match while your country is facing genocide?

Although Palestine lost 1-0, they remain undefeated in GAZA ✊🏼 🇵🇸 ✊🏼
Today I was with PALESTINE ❤️

English Script:
Well, some of the Palestinian players perhaps, understandably a little EMOTIONAL as the two teams going through the pregame ceremony. Palestinian players, all wearing the TRADITIONAL scarf of their homeland, the KUFIYA. Some of the officials, too. And the Gulf has been NOT always a favorite visiting spot for Australia in the PAST. They’ve only actually lost eight World Cup qualifiers since they moved to Asia in 2006, and five of those defeats have come in the Middle East. They should be too good tonight, but Palestinians, of course, will play HEAVILY on EMOTION and well backed from the stands.
