Roy Revivo experienced a dream summer as he won the bronze medal with Israel at the U20 World Championships in Argentina, reached the Semi Final with the U21’s in the European Championships in Georgia and made his debut appearance for the Israel national team. But Revivo, who scored his senior debut goal admitted after the game that scoring at in front of Maccabi’s fans was a dream come true: “It is my first senior goal for the senior side and I am delighted to have scored it at Bloomfield” he said.
Revivo, who made six appearances so far this season of which five were in the starting line-up, added “At Maccabi the battle for places is not just for the starting 11 but for a place in the squad. One needs to keep on working and working hard. I am delighted the youngsters are receiving credit but this is nothing special as it happens all over the world. There are other players as well who get a chance and I hope this continues.”
