塞尔维亚巴奇卡托波拉 —— 周日，在两队第二场欧国联足球赛前，爱尔兰球员再次佩戴黑色臂章并在以色列国歌奏响时低头默哀。
BACKA TOPOLA, Serbia — Ireland players again wore black armbands and bowed their heads during the Israeli national anthem before the teams’ second Nations League soccer match on Sunday.
以色列球员也佩戴了黑色臂章，以悼念2023年10月7日哈马斯发动袭击导致的以色列遇难者。
The Israeli players also wore black armbands in memory of the people killed in the Hamas-led attacks on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
由于队长达拉·奥谢亚获准陪伴妻子生产，爱尔兰门将凯莱赫临时担任队长，他在完成与裁判及一名助理裁判的常规赛前握手礼节后，刻意避免与以色列队长佩雷茨握手。
Ireland goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher stepped in as captain for Dara O’Shea – who was excused to be with his wife for the birth of their child – and he pointedly avoided shaking hands with Israel captain Dor Peretz, despite completing the usual pre-match formality with the referee and one of his assistants.
凯莱赫重复了奥谢亚上周在匈牙利德布勒森首场比赛前的举动，当时奥谢亚拒绝与以色列队长索洛蒙握手。爱尔兰队随后凭借上半场的三粒进球以3-0赢得了那场比赛。
Kelleher repeated O’Shea’s actions before the first match in Debrecen, Hungary last week, when O’Shea declined to shake Israel captain Manor Solomon’s hand. Ireland went on to win that game 3-0 through three first-half goals.
索洛蒙在周日于巴奇卡托波拉举行的比赛中被雪藏替补席。以色列前锋阿布·法尔奇在因进球庆祝动作吃红牌被罚下、缺席了9月25日以色列1-3负于奥地利的比赛后，重返大名单。
Solomon was dropped to the bench for Sunday’s match in Backa Topola, Serbia. Israel forward Sayed Abu Farchi was back in the squad after serving a suspension for getting sent off following his goal celebration during Israel’s 3-1 defeat to Austria on Sept. 25.
母亲拥有以色列血统的芬恩·阿扎兹入选爱尔兰替补名单，他在周四对阵奥地利的比赛中首发出场。
Finn Azaz, whose mother has Israeli heritage, was among the Irish substitutes after playing from the start against Austria on Thursday.
周日的比赛原定在都柏林举行，但在广泛呼吁抵制以抗议以色列在加沙行动的背景下，爱尔兰足协于6月以“运营原因”为由将比赛移至中立场地。爱尔兰足协表示比赛将在无观众情况下进行。
Sunday’s game was initially supposed to be played in Dublin, but the Football Association of Ireland moved the game to a neutral venue for “operational reasons” in June following widespread calls for a boycott in protest of Israel’s actions in Gaza The FAI said the game would be played with no fans present.
此前，爱尔兰足协于去年11月提出动议，呼吁欧足联禁止以色列参加俱乐部和国家队比赛。
It followed the FAI’s own motion the previous November calling on UEFA to ban Israel from club and international competitions.
所有爱尔兰球员都面临着来自国内的压力，要求抵制与以色列的第二场比赛，因为爱尔兰民众对巴勒斯坦人有着强烈的同情，尽管他们在首场比赛前承受的压力最大。最终，只有替补门将加文·巴祖努决定缺席这两场备受争议的比赛，他在声明中表示，这是基于他的“个人信念，即杀害无辜者是错误的”。周四，在爱尔兰与奥地利2-2战平的比赛中，抗议者向场内投掷印有巴勒斯坦国旗的网球，随后一名手持巴勒斯坦国旗的男子还试图冲入场内。
Pressure All the Irish players had been under pressure from home, where affinity with Palestinians is strong, to boycott the second match against Israel, though they faced the greatest pressure before the first game. Ultimately only reserve goalkeeper Gavin Bazuno decided to skip both of the contentious games, saying in a statement that it was his “personal belief that the killing of innocent people is wrong.”Protesters threw tennis balls with Palestinian flags onto the field during Ireland’s 2-2 draw with Austria on Thursday, when a man with a Palestinian flag also later tried running onto the field.
周六，一名以色列记者在赛前新闻发布会上声称，爱尔兰球员在上周的比赛中称以色列球员为“猴子”，这一指控立即遭到爱尔兰媒体官基兰·克劳利的严厉驳斥，他称这是“谎言”，并随即结束了新闻发布会。
On Saturday, an Israeli journalist stated during the pre-match press conference that the Irish players had called the Israeli players “monkeys” during last week’s game, leading to an immediate rebuke from Irish communications officer Kieran Crowley, who said it was “a lie” and ended the press conference.
球员们直到首场比赛前在德布勒森经历了戏剧性的一天后，才决定继续参加比赛。当时新闻发布会和训练都推迟了数小时，因为球员们在进行商议。据报道，在巴祖努当天早上退出后，他们以14比8的投票结果决定继续参赛。查看美联社完整足球报道请点击此处
The players only decided to go ahead with the fixtures after a dramatic day in Debrecen before the first match, when both press conference and training were delayed for hours while they deliberated. They reportedly voted 14-8 in favor of continuing after Bazunu’s withdrawal that morning. See AP’s full soccer coverage here
