Although Hapoel Jerusalem did not list yesterday (Sunday), they defeated Hapoel Gilboa / Galil 60:73 and advanced to the semi-finals of the Winner's Cup, where they will meet the winner between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Maccabi Rishon Lezion on Friday.
Outstanding player Martin Obasuhan said: "We played well, but there are many more things to work on, we will watch the video and play the way the coach wants us to play, but we have a lot of work to do. "We will be in the right direction. In our attack there is equality of opportunity between everyone, we are still learning from each other and the ideal thing is that we will share and move forward. I am happy to be here, there is a great team and great organization, we just have to lower our heads and work and then everything will work out."
Amiel added: "This is the beginning of the season and there is a lot of momentum, and ups and downs are part of the business. I do not think it was a good game for us. In really small parts we may have found the pace, but that's the end of our job as coaches - to coach and not just deal with tactics, but to formulate the strategy and the way we want to look in general and we are far from it. Although time is pressing on us, we are still not where we want to be and that is understandable and clear. "
"We need to create an identity for ourselves and the identity with us wants to connect at a high pace and ability to hold back the opposing team, that's part of the things we're working on," the coach said of the professional goals for the near term. This time more losses from assists and it does not represent us nor what we want to see, so it is good that we have players who can take the game when it is stuck and do actions, but we want to eventually split the ball, touch the ball and everyone will belong to something bigger and even if you do not "You're a partner in it, that's our goal and that's hard work."
