Under supervision of the Council of Orthodox Rabbis
of team camaraderie put Detroit
a player down following an ejec-
tion for the second half. Both
goals were scored in that half
Over lunch with the team, the
girls were in surprisingly good
spirits. The game seemed so far
away from what they had just
gone through on the field. Even
Jodi Fox, the goalie who got
stepped on, prompting the red
card for her arguing teammate,
felt fine despite the spike marks.
Wednesday turned ugly as
well, but for a whole other rea-
son: more rain.

Unfortunately, the baseball

A 1-0 loss puts Israel out of the running

players, their sport doesn't get
rained out.
The girls beat Pittsburgh
again, 5-0 this time in an early
morning downpour. The early
lead let coach Larry Harwin stick
his goalkeeper in the field, and
put backup Stacey Raf in goal.
Raf did something unseen in soc-
cer, except when goal scoring.
She danced.
After sprawling to smother a
shot destined for the netting in-
side the far post, she booted the
ball upfield and celebrated.
While I missed the closing cer-
emonies, I was told the boys soc-
cer teams from Detroit and North
Jersey, the team that topped De-
troit for the gold, showed real
class and got along great despite
a pair of hard-fought games dur-
ing the week.
It only goes to show that if only
a fraction of the Detroit delega-
tion (myself included) can have
that much fun in a distant city,
imagine what can happen when
the whole delegation — let alone
much of the county and some in-
ternational guests — come to De-
troit for the JCC North American
Maccabi Games next year.

srael's World Cup soccer as-
pirations came to a brave but
disappointing end in the Aug.
21 European Group 5 clash
against Bulgaria in Sofia's Lev-
ski Stadium.
The Israelis ended 1-0 losers
in a match decided by a 68th-
minute goal by Bulgarian sub-
stitute Lyuboslav Penev in front
of a fiercely partisan crowd of
25,000.
Coach Shlomo Scharf's Is-
raelis needed a vic-
tory to retain any
hope of progress-
ing into next year's
finals in France.
The win leap-
frogged the Bul-
garians over the
Israelis and Rus-
sia. The Bulgari-
ans now head the
group with 15
points, ahead of
Russia who re-
main at 14 points
and the Israelis
who end their
eight-match group
play in third posi-
tion with 13
points.
The Bulgarians
will play Russia at
home and away in the two re-
maining qualifying matches that
will decide the outcome of the
group.
Scharfs game plan of playing
Ran Ben-Shimon as a sweeper
succeeded in a tightly-fought,
goalless first half. As expected,
the offense was largely in favor
of the host team, which had the
ball 80 percent of the time. But
the Bulgarians were restricted
to outside shots, despite the
srael's Felix Halfon fights with Bulgarian Hristo Stoichkov.
