Support for Jehezkel from Haim Revivo: Scandalous remarks against the Turkish people!

In the 20th week of the Super Lig, Antalyaspor hosted Trabzonspor. The goal celebration by Antalyaspor's Israeli footballer Sagiv Jehezkel during the match, which ended 1-1, sparked reactions.

After scoring, Jehezkel displayed the date October 7, 2023—the day the Israel-Hamas war began—and the Star of David written on the bandage on his arm.

The Israeli footballer, who was excluded from the squad by the Mediterranean team, was detained as part of an investigation launched by the Antalya Chief Public Prosecutor's Office. After his procedures at the police station, Sagiv Jehezkel was referred to the courthouse, where he was released but a decision was made for his deportation.

SUPPORT FOR JEHEZKEL FROM REVIVO

Following the events, the Israeli government took action to retrieve Sagiv Jehezkel and his family, sending a private jet to Turkey. Sagiv Jehezkel, who stated in his court testimony that he wanted the war to end and that his actions were misunderstood, received support from former Israeli footballer Haim Revivo, who previously played for Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray in Turkey.

SCANDALOUS REMARKS: SHAME ON THE HYPOCRISY OF THE TURKS

According to the report in Sözcü, Revivo shared a post on his social media account featuring a photo of Jehezkel, stating: "You are a champion, my man, stay strong, I love you. Shame on the hypocrisy of the Turks. I hope we can now put pressure on Ofa to get him released."

Sports fans reacted to Revivo's remarks targeting the Turkish people.

HE HAD ALSO REACTED TO THE TFF

Haim Revivo had previously made a similar outburst regarding the decision taken by the Turkish Football Federation to hold a moment of silence for Gaza, stating in his post: "Shame on you, Turkish Football Federation. You will hold a moment of silence and wear black armbands for the citizens of Gaza, but you do not do this for the Jews massacred by Hamas."
