Support for Palestinians in International Football Governance
The chapter explores the solidarity shown towards the Palestinians in international football, particularly concerning their grievances regarding teams based in settler lands playing in Israeli leagues violating FIFA's rules. It delves into the complexities of support received from football associations, the impact of a video presentation at the AFC Congress, and notable events like Bohemians hosting a fundraising game for the Palestinian women's team. The discussion also highlights contrasting situations like the management of Maccabee Tel Aviv by Robbie Keane and the removal of term limits in Asian football governance, with some references to music and popular culture peppered throughout.
