Palestine confirm November friendlies

Following a full slate of games in October that culminated in lifting the Bangabandhu Cup, Palestine will now turn their attention to their final phase of preparation for the upcoming Asian Cup.

With two of the four games in the Bangabandhu Cup falling in the FIFA window- Palestine were forced to turn down an invite from Bahrain to play a friendly in Manama.

Bahrain secured Myanmar as a late replacement for Palestine.

The PFA has confirmed that the senior national team will play two away matches in November- facing Pakistan in Lahore on the 15th and China in Hangzhou on the 20th.

Palestine have played 10 friendlies to date and the additional two encounters will take the number to 12- the highest number of friendlies Palestine has played in a calendar year.

After giving a good amount of game time to many domestic based players this month- next month presents the last chance for the players based abroad to stake a claim to a spot in the Asian Cup squad.

With a number of Palestinian pla…

Rapid Reaction: Kyrgyz Republic 1:1 Palestine

FULL MATCH

Palestine Starting XI: Toufic Ali, Jaka Ihbeisheh, Mohammed Saleh (Tamer Salah), Abdelatif Bahdari, Abdallah Jaber; Mohammed Basim, Pablo Tamburrini (Shadi Shaban)(Musab Al-Battat); Islam Batran (Mahmoud Eid), Sameh Maraaba (Mahmoud Wadi), Oday Dabbagh (Hilal Mousa); Yashir Pinto Islame

Kyrgyzstan Starting XI:

Cautions: Abdelatif Bahdari 37' 90' Tamirlan Kouzbaev 58'

Goals: Mirlan Murzaev 2' Oday Dabbagh 38'

Recap: An atrocious error from Abdelatif Bahdari inside two minutes set the tone in the early stages of the game. Palestine had started with the intent to move the ball quickly in order to catch their Kyrgyz hosts out of possession and all seemed well until Bahdari dawdled on the ball too long and allowed his counterpart, Mirlan Murzaev the opportunity to nick the ball. A faster goalkeeper might have been able to react to cut out the danger but Toufic Ali could do very little to prevent the opener from the Kyrgyz captain.

Four minutes later, the goalscor…

Open Letter: 2019 is not 2015

For the second consecutive time, Palestine will take part at the AFC Asian Cup but the mood amongst its most hardcore supporters has been negative, defeatist, and incredibly fatalistic.

That mood is almost solely attributable to the the Palestinian Football Association's decision to terminate Abdel Nasser Barakat's contract. The decision to do so caused mass hysteria and while the PFA succumbed to pressure by firing Julio Cesar Baldivieso after two games it has done nothing to bring the fans back onside.
With Baldivieso out of the picture, many expected Abdel Nasser Barakat to return. Instead, the PFA has decided to retain Barakat in his role of national team director and reinstate the old staff with long time assistant Noureddine Ould Ali take the reins of the national team.
Is the situation ideal? No. Does it guarantee failure in six months time? Of course not. Leave the past in the past
Palestine were in a similar situation in the lead up to the 2015 AFC Asian Cup but…
