Hapoel Tel Aviv will meet the Maccabi Fatah National League semifinal at the Netanya Stadium tomorrow. Ahead of the intriguing game, the team coaches held a festive press conference.
"In the Cup you can't define clear favorites, even though Maccabi Petah has a clear national superiority. You have to come focused and serious, no matter who you play. "
Klinger added: "It's young people's time to show character. We are in good shape, we should not hide from it, but we respect Maccabi Petah Tikva, which is a group of excellent youngsters and very dynamic. I hope I can tell you 'what a bass we are in Europe and not in Europe'. I promise to be defeated if we win the title. "
Maccabi PT coach Guy Luzon, who in the not too distant past coached the Red Shovel and last season lost to them in the last round of the league and so the national eagle, added: "We are not looking for revenge. Hapoel Tel Aviv is the sure candidate to win the Cup, because it is the best fit group among the four teams participating, but we have no disadvantage. We are the team with the most young people in Israel and that is our strength. "
Klinger remained indebted and answered Luzon: "It doesn't make any impression on me. The game won't be decided in psychology."
