Israel's national soccer team soundly defeated Bosnia 3-0 on Sunday night at Sammy Ofer Stadium in Haifa, placing itself squarely at the head of its group in the qualifying round of the UEFA 2016 European Championship.

Over 30,000 fans cheered the victory, including Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Finance Minister Yair Lapid (Yesh Atid), as Israel took the top of Group B with nine points, placing itself ahead of Wales.

The match leaves Israel undefeated in the qualifying games, having won last month against Andorra 4-1 and Cyprus 2-1. Israel is a point ahead of Wales, even though Wales has already played four matches.
