In boxing there is an unwritten rule that if two punches enter in a row you knock down the opponent.
Maccabi Haifa snatched one punch against Maccabi Tel Aviv, but the wisdom was not to snatch the other from Hapoel Kfar Saba, because that could have knocked it down hard. This is perhaps one of the best qualities this season that Barak Bachar instilled in Maccabi Haifa players. Background noises and criticisms resonate, pass by and do not seep in.
This is largely due to the character of players like Dolev Haziza.
The one who was released as a child from Maccabi Petah Tikva because he was physically small, moved to Ness Ziona and Hapoel Ramat Gan, putting everyone's talent in his face, especially those who did not believe in him.
His goal in front of KPS (35) is such that the audience at home welcomes the fact that he watched it on TV, because at home there is a repetitive transmission.
Nikita Rokavica came back with a double (52, 65) and Haifa completed a 0: 3 part.
And KPS, with the lack of five key players, such as Atenda, Makhlouf, Reichert and others, will look for the points against teams its size, Maccabi Haifa is not one of those.
