Thousands of Argentina supporters from across Israel filled Menora Mivtachim Arena and the plaza outside Gate 1 in Tel Aviv ahead of the World Cup final against Spain. The Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality moved its screening from Charles Clore Park to the arena and organized the event with Kan, using four giant screens. The 10,000 available tickets sold out quickly, and fans arrived in Argentina shirts, waved flags, sang and danced. Another roughly 2,000 spectators gathered for a municipal screening at Romema Sports Hall in Haifa.
