Hard morning at Hapoel Haifa: "We made a shame for ourselves and the club" | Israel today

Hapoel Haifa coach, Elisha Levy, apologized last night (Thursday) to his team's fans for the defeat in the derby, 5: 1 to Maccabi Haifa.

The team players were also ashamed to approach at the end of the game the fans who still stayed in the stadium and did not go home at an earlier stage.

"We were ashamed of ourselves and the club," admitted players on the team, adding: "It was a game that must be forgotten quickly, it is a black spot for all of us."

Alongside these things, on the red side of the Carmel are talking about the significant shortcomings in last night's lineup, of the brake tried Capilotto and striker Alon Turgeman.

"The squad is not deep enough, two missing key players are dismantling the whole lineup" said players in red who added: "Although there is no excuse to get five goals in the derby. Our defensive game is a catastrophe."

Meanwhile, assistant referee Matti Yakubov entered coach Elisha Levy's room at the end of the game and apologized to him for pushing him inadvertently during the game.

Yaakovov explained to Levy that he felt a push in his back during the incident and turned around at first without knowing what it was about.
