Maccabi Tel Aviv must have hoped that the dismissal of Georgios Donis would provide the required shock and put the club back on track.

Patrick Van Leven stood in his place tonight (Thursday) on the lines, but the ability was the same ability.

Luckily for the champion, she received a very dubious penalty in the 98th minute against Urbani Kiryat Shmona, when Daniel Bar Natan, Snir Levy and the VAR system decided on the penalty spot and allowed Dan Bitton to set a small-large 0: 1.

The gap from Maccabi Haifa dropped back to eight points and on Monday the Tel Aviv derby awaits the Yellows, perhaps with a new coach.

"The players responded well, the message was to work as a team, to fight from the first moment to the last and that's what they did," said interim coach Patrick Van Leven.

"We talked together about how to get a good result, we had enough chances to win. In the end it went to our side. It's not an easy task to replace someone in a short time. I tried to remind the players what we did at the beginning of the season, and that should be looked at."

On the dismissal of Donis, the Dutchman said: "That should be asked to the management, I am not supposed to explain the situation. I was asked to coach and I tried to help the club."

When asked if he would stay as coach he replied: "It has been a full 24 hours of talking, so I can not answer that question."

Tonight's hero Matan Hozaz, who was allegedly failed in the open by Amir Ben Shimon, said: "There was a penalty, unequivocally. I made a mistake, he got stuck in my legs, I fell. The victory makes us very happy, everything that happened with the change of coaches is out of our control, we do the It's on the best side and keep going. It was surprising, we did not expect it, but it's done and we adapt to the changes. I really hope to get more minutes, I went through a difficult injury and was four months out. Of course we want to win the championship, it's a marathon long".
