The European Football Association UEFA announced that two Palestinian children from Gaza will participate in the medal ceremony at the conclusion of the European Super Cup match between Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham. It was reported that the two, 12-year-old Tala and 9-year-old Mohammed, will ascend the podium alongside UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin. This move comes days after Liverpool star Mohamed Salah criticized UEFA for publishing the news of the death of Suleiman al-Obeid, known as the 'Palestinian Pele,' who according to reports was killed in Gaza while waiting for aid. Salah criticized the fact that UEFA did not mention the circumstances of his death.
