Match background • Andorra lost both their previous meetings with Israel, David Rodrigo's men suffering a 4-1 away defeat – staged in Nijmegen, the Netherlands – and a 2-0 home loss to Dror Kashtan's side in UEFA EURO 2008 qualifying. • Andorra kicked off Group B with a 2-1 reverse at home to Wales but led for 16 minutes until Gareth Bale cancelled out Ildefons Lima's sixth-minute penalty. • They had not scored in their preceding 18 competitive matches – and had not been in front in a competitive fixture since 13 October 2004, when they beat the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia 1-0 in a FIFA World Cup qualifier. • The six games between Andorran and Israeli clubs in UEFA competition surprisingly include an Andorran win as well as five Israeli victories; FC Santa Coloma overcame Maccabi Tel-Aviv FC 1-0 in the first leg of a 2007/08 UEFA Cup first qualifying round tie, though they lost the return 4-0. It was the first win by an Andorran team in UEFA club competition. • The nations' sole meeting in UEFA age-group tournaments was a 2-0 success for Israel's Under-18 side in 1999. 3 Andorra - Israel Monday 13 October 2014 - 20.45CET (20.45 local time) Match press kit Estadi Nacional, Andorra la Vella Squad list Andorra Current season Overall Qual.
