Hapoel Tel Aviv has made many changes to its squad over the past summer in hopes of opening the season on the right foot but succumbed to Hapoel Kfar Saba tonight (Saturday) in the opening round of the Premier League. The Greens defeated Klinger 1: 2 and his trainees who will continue to work on the national team break to find the formula to improve. After the game about 100 fans of the team came to the vicinity of the locker rooms and cursed the management of the team.

The Reds coach, Nir Klinger, said after the game: “Very bad feelings. Even in the first half which was very weak, we did not create enough opportunities, but we made one mistake and conceded a goal. In the second half the game turned, went in our direction, and then again we snatched a goal that until now sits in my head because we lost a ball in our attack. We will have to improve our defensive game, especially against outbursts. We have three foreigners who could not open the game, Zikri will get more fit, and that will affect the team. Too bad to open the season in this way. Even after the 2: 1 we had amazing opportunities. We can be encouraged by the second half and hope that the players who join will add depth and quality to us. "

Klinger added: "It's an annoying loss that shouldn't have happened, and if we were more responsible especially in the second goal we conceded, we could have come out with three points. Too early to think about goals this season, not all the staff are here right now, this is not the team "We should have won today, but we made the Torah mistake in defense and I hope that in the future we will know how to turn games."

Kfar Saba coach Amir Turgeman: “We have worked hard for the past month and a half. We could have won the game even before but we missed. The actors stood very nicely. We will have to learn to keep our gate, and face forward. There is still a long way to go, the goal we set at the beginning of the season is not interesting. We have a lot more to improve and there is a lot more work to do. This is just the beginning, but we won with all the excitement and stress of the opening. The test is mostly mental and we did it well. "

Omar Padida, captain of the Greens: “All the players did a good job. Without the help of the members we would not have done it, we are one unit, working from training to training as one unit and want to move forward. We will work from week to week to get better. Management made many efforts to strengthen the team but there was not much time. A good staff will be built here and we are seeing the change. "
