Unprecedented: Ireland goalkeeper announces he won't play against Israel, others 'considering joining'

|
The chaos surrounding the charged Nations League match between Ireland and Israel continues, and according to a report in the Irish Independent, backup goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu announced that he does not wish to take part in the match against Israel, and now additional players are considering taking a similar stance. According to the report, Bazunu decided not to participate in the matches due to discomfort he feels regarding holding the encounter against Israel at this time, and the message was conveyed this morning to officials in the Irish Football Association. Meanwhile, Ireland's press conference, which was scheduled to take place at 11:15 a.m. (Israel time), was postponed at the last minute, as was the national team's training session that was supposed to begin in Debrecen.
