That was the first goal scored by the Palestinian football team on Palestinian soil. First recognized by Fifa in 1998, they didn't play their first match on home soil until 26 October 2008. The match, with Jordan, ended in a 1-1 draw.

Hey Sparky - Congratulations on the new gig! I'm looking forward to working with you...
The Palestinian captain, Saed Jundiyah, was determined to be a security risk by the Israelis and so was unable to travel from Gaza to play in the match.
