"We had to break up Betar, give them a five, but it was one of our sweetest victories," say Hapoel Tel Aviv, where they have not yet calmed down from the dramatic 0-1 victory over Betar Jerusalem.
Hapoel praised all the players for the great performance, but especially Idan Vered, who played one of his better games since joining the team, despite suffering curses from Betar fans, the team he captained until the summer.
"Players gave 500% here. Everyone was in a frenzy to win. This year we must be in the top playoffs," Hapoel said.
Striker Shlomi Azulai, who scored the team's winning goal, said this morning: "It was a very exciting goal. This is my first goal of the season in the league and I hope he will open his luck to the next goals. I am glad I brought the victory."

Azoulay was asked what the difference is between the current Hapoel and last year's and responded: "This year we are much more relaxed. Last year we were in a difficult situation. We were deep down and most importantly did not absorb and you saw 11 players tearing their asses not absorbing "This year we are producing a lot of situations, I do not remember the verb that is how situations are created, points are taken, and I hope it will continue."
Assistant coach Salim Toema added: "To beat Betar like this is the greatest joy that can be.
The fans gave a display.
I beat Betar as a player but today it was sweeter. On Saturday I will return to my place on the bench and we will receive significant reinforcement (Nir Klinger will return to the lines after finishing the SA dismissal) on the lines. Football can change in a second, but we started the season well, there is a team It's good and I hope that we will continue to reach as high a map as possible. "
