Nimni: Fans could inspire win

Israel captain Avi Nimni believes the country’s supporters could carry the side to what he feels would be one of the best results in their history.

For the first time since a World Cup play-off game against Colombia in 1989, no tickets will be on sale on the day for Israel’s Group Four match against the Republic of Ireland as the Ramat-Gan Stadium is a 41,000 sell out.
