Haifa, Israel
Convincing my wife, Atzva, to come with me to a football game is not easy.
I manage to do it only once until today. On the other hand I took here to a game in the third league in Israel (it did finished 7-1 but still third league…) – so you can understand why she didn’t want to come to another one.
But I convinced her to come to the game today – Israel Vs Bosnia in The Shakshouka Stadium. It was because the stadium is new and she wanted to see it too =)
Not only we enjoyed the new stadium, we also enjoyed one of the best important winnings of Israel National Team: 3-0 over Bosnia!, and some good chances to qualify to EURO 2016 from Group B =)

The Shakshouka Stadium from outside (I call it that way for the mess Sammy offer did with some of Israel past national companies that became private during the 1990’s.
See all the diagonal? Those are all meant to help the Stadium hold against an earthquake =)
Panorama view of the stadium from inside.
During Israel national anthem Ha- Tikva, the crowd rise up small Israel flags =)
The crowd claps their hands, and that sounds good! This stadium has good acoustics =)
