An Ireland national football team player has refused to take part in a match against Israel, a decision being praised by critics of the fixture. Commenters argue the Football Association of Ireland should not be legitimising Israel by playing the tie, with an Irish Times piece on the game criticising the FAI's leadership over the controversy.
Why now: The refusal has reignited debate over whether Ireland should play football matches against Israel amid the Gaza war.
