Childhood friends secure Premier League dream
Brighton and Hove Albion secured promotion to the Premier League, and at the heart of the team are two Israelis.
Tomer Hemed and Beram Kayal are best friends, who have known each other since childhood.
But,while Kayal is an Israeli-Arab who reads passages from the Qur'an before matches, Hemed is a Jew who goes to synagogue every Friday evening.
World Football's Mani Djazmi met up with them both in Brighton to talk about the prospect of playing in the Premier League next season - which for Beram Kayal is a childhood dream come true.
