A painful relegation in last season's final 8 in the Champions League held in Athens, a loss in the semi-finals of the Winner's Cup and a frustrating loss in the opening game of the new European season against Turk Telecom Ankara whose victory could have given it the home title later on.
We are only at the beginning of the season, but so far Hapoel Jerusalem has failed in all these intersections.
With this record and great pressure on his shoulders, Oded Katash and his trainees are currently hosting the French Limoges at the Arena in Jerusalem.
The team from the capital defined the game as a game for the European season after the decision of the captain of the Champions Cup that the early houses will be 4 teams and not 8. This is to make the game more profitable.
Professionally, Jacoben Brown who has been absent since the start of the season has been joined by Malcolm Hill who is injured and will be out for several more weeks. Jerusalem, built on the Brown-Hill-Thomas axis, faces without two sides of the triangle.
