Hapoel Beer Sheva continued its dreamy European campaign tonight (Thursday).
The trophy holder opened the home stage with an amazing 1: 3 over Slavia Prague at the Colony Stadium.
Jonathan his thumb and a pair of John Acotlasa gave the victory to the Southerners.
Team coach Yossi Aboksis said after the game: "The credit is to the players, they really deserve it. Slavia usually do not play with 3 brakes. All our preparation was for a quartet line, and suddenly they played like that. It was harder because of that. We won a level team here. "Very high. We didn't have many situations but we managed to take advantage of what we had. We knew how to keep them in not many situations, this is a team that usually conquers a lot."
On Joshua and Elton Acolasta: "These are decisive players, this is what you need to have. I am very happy that they stayed. I told my players that at the end of this evening they will remember only the result, not what was before and not the preparation. I too was uncertain. "Very big and I did not know what would happen. The players in the end came as great."

Josewa, who again provided a huge game, added about his coach: "We worked together as a team to get back in the game, and we won. We did not know if we would play at all, until today. We waited and waited for an answer about it, I was at the hotel and pondered whether I would play or not. That in the end we played and won. I could have left BS, but in the end I'm here and I have a contract until the end of the season.
I believe we can fight for 3 points in every game.
Also in the Europa League.
It is not easy, because with every little mistake made our rivals can conquer.
This is a great result for us, hope we continue like this.
