Ben-Haim gets texts during the game
Tal Ben-Haim revealed how he was bombarded with text messages from Chelsea’s delirious England stars.
Blues’ England skipper John Terry plus Joe Cole, Frank Lampard, Ashley Cole and Wayne Bridge even sent some during Israel’s epic win.
Defender Ben-Haim switched on his phone after helping his country seal the win which puts England back in the box seat to qualify for Euro 2008.
He said: “Of course I have had some texts from John Terry, Frank Lampard — all of them.
" I don’t want to say what was in them but the English players are very committed to your country as well. Now it is up to them.”
