But they persevered through determination and flair to work their way into a winning position. <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cFantastic game, tough game\u201d, said Rugby Israel national team coach and technical director Kevin Musikanth. \u201cThe Jackals were obviously better at the set piece, but then the Fijian were better at open play and did enough to win it. The game had many penalties and many cards, as it meant a lot for the Jackals and meant a lot to the Fijians who are great competitors and great ambassadors for the sport. They have done so much for Israeli rugby and we are grateful for that. Nice for the Jackals to win a trophy in their first year of existence. Nice to see young Israeli players get chances.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rugby.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/mom-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6030\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rugby.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/mom-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rugby.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/mom-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.rugby.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/mom-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.rugby.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/mom-1536x1025.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.rugby.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/mom-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.rugby.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/mom.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Man of the Match, Thabiso Mdletshe ( (Photo: Roy Kfir, Rugby Israel)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>For Gal Aviram, captain of Israel\u2019s Sevens team and scorer of the winning try, it was an emotional moment:&#13;\n\u201cAfter such a long time without playing, getting back on the pitch was a dream.
