For the ninth time this season, Roni Levy's Betar Jerusalem scored three valuable points tonight without absorbing. Freddie Plomin put the host to the lead in the 41st minute, Gadi Kinda (87) doubled in an impressive personal operation. The Jerusalemites returned to third place after 0: 2 My home in Teddy on Hapoel Raanana.
"We have a clear trend throughout many games and this is a positive trend," said coach Ronnie Levy at the end of the game. "We are improving. A good team is measured over time, produces a certain style of play and character and I think we are in the right direction."
On Plumin's ability, Levy added: "It's a very talented player, a great kid and a little introvert who needs direction from a lot of players. Sometimes it takes time to combine personal and team ability. He gets better over time. I'm happy for him. "
"The championship? You can say the word, but the question of whether we are in that direction. We need to keep improving and win and if we narrow the gap from the first place we can talk about it, right now it's just early."

On the other side, Raanana running coach Nisu Avitan, concludes: "We couldn't get any points out and it's disappointing. We were worth a little more, but when you're wrong against Betar you pay it dearly. It will be a long and tedious struggle. We need to be in the right place lately. It's not pleasant, but we believe in our ability to do better things later. "
