• Hemir Hallgrimsson expresses his relief at the end of the window of difficult international matches, and hopes that no team will be subjected to such suffering.
• No other team should go through this - Hallgrimsson - Yahoo Sports.

The coach of the Republic of Ireland national team, Heimir Hallgrimsson, expressed his happiness at the end of the most difficult window of international matches that the team went through, as he said that he is “pleased” that this difficult period is over, and he hopes that no other team will be subjected to what they went through during the past two weeks.

During this period, the team played four matches, including only one match in Ireland, and traveled about 8,000 kilometers, where the curtain fell on this period with a 1-1 draw against Israel in the Serbian city of Baka Topola. These weeks were full of pressures and challenges, especially after the campaign launched by the Irish pressure group “Sports for Palestine”, which called for a boycott of the matches due to the Israeli war on Gaza.

Pressure mounted ahead of last Sunday's match with the team's victory in Hungary, as goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu decided not to participate in these matches, as he felt it was "wrong to participate." A vote was also held among the remaining players on whether to continue playing matches in Israel, amid abnormal circumstances.

Before Sunday's match, Halgrimsson's press conference was cut short when an Israeli journalist made accusations that some Ireland players had made racist comments during last week's win, something the Irish Football League strongly denied, as it opened an investigation into racist abuse suffered by Irish players from some Israeli fans.

Hallgrimsson, looking tired, addressed the media again, admitting that he was "more energetic" but that he had "learned a lot during those two weeks." “I am very happy that this is over,” he stressed, noting that his team obtained five points out of a possible 12.

Although Bazunu pulled out of Israel's matches, midfielder Finn Azaz did not feature in either match, but for different reasons. He has family ties to Israel on his mother's side, which made Halgrimsson feel that he was in a difficult situation due to the team's decision to wear black armbands during the Israeli anthem in the two matches.

Azaz performed well in the 2-2 draw with Austria, but was not ready for the Israel game. "I didn't feel he was ready for the Israel game," Hallgrimsson said. "He played 90 minutes against Austria and had a little injury, but also, this was tough for him psychologically, and I didn't feel like he was ready to play. It's probably the most difficult situation for him out of all of us. He deserves all the credit for being in the squad and showing a desire to be part of this team. It was difficult for him to wear black armbands and bow down. During the playing of the Israeli anthem.

Despite these difficulties, when the topic of Azaz continuing his international career was raised, the coach could only “hope” so, as he stressed, “Nothing indicates that he will leave the national team, and his presence here confirms to me that he wants to be with us,” adding that he is looking forward to being part of the Euro 2028 finals.

What's next?

يتطلع هيمير هالجرمسون إلى إعادة بناء الفريق بعد هذه الفترة الصعبة، حيث سيحتاج إلى التركيز على التحضير للمباريات القادمة. من المتوقع أن يدرس المدرب خياراته بعناية، خاصة بعد انسحاب غافن بازونو، لضمان جاهزية اللاعبين. كما أن نتائج هذه المباريات ستؤثر على موسم منتخب جمهورية أيرلندا بشكل عام.
