After Alexandru Gatcan and Artur Ionita, another leader of the national football team of Moldova Alexandru Epureanu will also not be able to take part in the June 6 friendly against Israel, IPN reports.

“Epureanu had a difficult season. During the past four days, he played two matches for Istanbul Basaksehir. Even without these players, we will make effort to produce surprises in the encounter with Israel,” Moldova manager Igor Dobrovolski told a news conference.

Earlier, Moldova and Israel met five times. Israel won three matches, while the other two games ended in a draw.
