ISRAEL'S NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAM

Updated: Jan 6, 2021


The ISRAEL NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAM represents Israel in international football, and is governed by the Israel Football Association (IFA).


Israel's National Team is the direct successor of the Mandatory Palestine (Eretz Israel) National Football Team, which played five internationals in 1934–1940, and was managed by the Eretz Israel Football Association. Israel Football has been part of the UEFA since 1994 as well.


FACTS:

  • The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) is the administrative body for Association Football, Futsal and Beach Soccer in Europe

  • The Israeli team qualified for their only FIFA World Cup in 1970

  • In 1991, Israeli clubs began participating in European club competitions, and Israel returned to the European League of World Cup qualifying in 1992.

  • In 1994, Israel received full UEFA membership, 20 years after it had left Asia.

  • Within Europe, Israel has been a relatively minor player,, though it has had some successes, notably winning 3–2 in Paris against France in 1993, and 5–0 against Austria in 1999. That year, Israel made it to the UEFA Euro 2000 qualifying play-offs, but was beaten by Denmark.

  • - Israel came close to advancing to the playoffs in the 2006 World Cup finishing third, behind France, and tied on points with Switzerland.

  • - Avram Grant, the youngest national coach of Israel, announced his resignation on October 26, 2005. He was replaced by Dror Kashtan.

  • - The continued presence of the Israeli Football Association in UEFA was a precedent cited by Australia to justify its transfer from the Oceania Football Confederation to the Asian Football Confederation.
