French football legend Eric Cantona backed the #GameOverIsrael campaign at the Together for Palestine benefit in London, urging FIFA and UEFA to suspend Israel and condemning the double standards that allow it to compete while committing genocide in Gaza.
A coalition of advocacy groups has unveiled a massive Times Square billboard calling on football federations in England, France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Greece, Ireland, Norway and Scotland to boycott Israel’s national team and bar Israeli players from domestic leagues.
Cantona said: “Four days after Russia started a war in Ukraine, FIFA and UEFA suspended Russia. We are now 716 days into a genocide – and yet Israel continue to be allowed to participate. Why, why is it double standards? FIFA and UEFA must suspend Israel.”
