—————————————————-
GOALKEEPER
Scott Shear (Real Sosobad) – Instrumental between the sticks, made some excellent stops. Quick off his line as he often played as a sweeper
DEFENCE
Yisroel Lewis (London Rovers) – Played out of position at left-back but was extremely comfortable while also making several driving runs into the opposition half.
Nick Shinder (Athletic Bilbaum) – Fantastic performance, his first full 90 minutes this season. Neither a single ball or man went past him, and goal line clearance capped off display
Ezekiel Jacob (Hendon United B) – Wasn’t feeling great, wanted to pull out, but was persuaded to play by his manager and he didn’t let him down with a solid display
David Kanzen (Camden Park) – Filled in at right-back as a result of injuries and did more than a job for the team, defending with aggression and always providing an outlet going forward
MIDFIELD:
Ben Graham (FC Team C) – Dangerous down both flanks, had the beating of his man throughout the whole second half and can count himself unlucky not to score
Adam Kay (London Rovers) – Won everything and kept the play flowing. Commanded the whole game
Jonathan Kay (Norstar London Raiders A) –Strong as an ox and set tempo for whole team. Everything good from the Raiders came from him.
Richard Silver (Camden Park) – Richard carried on his brilliant form by scoring two goals, his second showing signs of how he’s back to his clinical best
ATTACK:
James Gold (London Maccabi Lions Blue) – Scored again to make it three in three to continue his red-hot form of late
Jake Gilbert (Norstar London Raiders B) – Scored a match-winning second half hat-trick, which included a stunning overhead kick
MANAGER OF THE WEEK
Jamie Kyte (London Maccabi Lions Blue)
PLAYER-MANAGER OF THE WEEK:
Jake Gilbert (Norstar London Raiders B)

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
