Israel player Sayed Abu Farchi sent off for goal celebration in Nations League

  • On Thursday, Israel forward Saied Abu Farchi was sent off in the 56th minute after scoring an equalizer against Austria, following a celebration where he used the corner flag to simulate a gun.
  • The 20-year-old forward, already on a yellow card, received a second booking for removing the corner flag, forcing Israel to play the remainder with 10 players.
  • Austria ultimately defeated Israel 3-1 at the Raiffeisen Arena in Linz, securing the Nations League victory through goals from Romano Schmid, Phillipp Mwene, and Sasa Kalajdzic.
  • Following the dismissal, the hosts secured all three points by netting two goals during injury time, capitalizing on their numerical advantage against the depleted Israeli side.
  • Elsewhere in the UEFA Nations League, Erling Haaland struck twice in Norway's 3-2 victory over Denmark, while Cody Gakpo's stoppage-time equalizer rescued a 1-1 draw for the Netherlands against Jurgen Klopp's Germany.
