On Monday night, a football match took place in Gaza against Israeli violence directed at Palestinian residents. The national team has, however, been one of the few international symbols of Palestine (given non-member observer state status at the United Nations in 2012) since it was recognized by football’s world governing body FIFA in 1998. “Whether it is football or something else, without peace you can’t do anything and there is no peace Palestine," Ould Ali told DW. "Palestinians don’t live in a good situation. People can’t move easily or do anything, and this makes football very difficult."

The video shows a football stadium, audience of spectators, flags in the stands. Pigeons are released before the match.
