Hapoel Beer Sheva's CEO, Adv. Guy Primor, also responds today (Thursday) to the events of last night's game against Hapoel Tel Aviv (1: 2 victory).
As you may recall, the winning goal came from an accurate penalty by Iyad Abu Abid, after a borderline failure on Itai Schechter in the box.
"Claims about refereeing and penalties have always been and always will be in football. I watched several times during the night during the penalty shootout and there is a clear contact, a 100 percent penalty, and if it was not with me Schechter then no one would tweet on this issue. Apologize to no one for clear offenses committed on our players, "Primor concluded to the club's official website.
The CEO continued: “Regardless of the penalties, we came very prepared for the game, both at the tactical level and the mental level.
"Hapoel Tel Aviv is a strong, stubborn team with a lot of experience and qualities. At the end of the day, it was not the referees who won the game for us, but the players and the professional team. We beat them in every parameter, we were much better and won the game rightly."
An exciting event that took place yesterday before the opening whistle was the memorial service for the former coach, the late Amatzia Levkovich, in the presence of his family and the players of the championship squad in which the late Amatzia coached.
"The name of the late Amatzia Lewkowicz is engraved in gold letters in the history of the club.
I was very moved along with his family by the honorable ceremony that was held.
"The late Amatzia and all the championship players broke the glass ceiling and brought great joy to the city in those days. It was very gratifying to be present behind the scenes yesterday and to hear from these great players stories about that period."
