"Maccabi, the character of Tel Aviv," shouted Shai Sidi, the champion's announcer last night, a moment after Dor Peretz's dramatic victory goal in overtime against Bnei Sakhnin.
Indeed it was a victory of character, of a team of wineries that did not raise a white flag until the last second, but really not in good football.
The Yellows' victory was the fourth of the season they achieved after the 90th minute.
On the one hand, the joy at Maccabi is great in light of the dramatic victory and especially after the leader Maccabi Haifa lost to Ashdod and the gap in the table dropped to 2 points, but on the other hand, the team knows very well that they can not rely on the goddess of fortune.
"The ability was very bad, but to win the championship we have to win all the games with the little ones, that's the only way to win a championship and not head-to-head games," say Maccabi Tel Aviv, adding, "We knew Maccabi Haifa would lose points and lose more games. In a marathon and it will be until the end. "
Maccabi complimented Itai Schechter, who came in only in the 82nd minute, but once again proved how much the team needs him and finally even cooked up the winning goal for Peretz, who also squeezed compliments.
It is not inconceivable that later this week against Hadera Schechter will once again get a chance in the squad.
Meanwhile, as first reported in 'Israel Today' about two months ago, the Yellows are trying to reach an understanding on a new and long-term contract with Dor Peretz, who ends his contract at the end of the season and can now negotiate with any team regarding the next season.
But at this stage the parties are unable to reach a conclusion in light of the fact that Maccabi want to leave the power in their hands and are not interested in including a release clause in the contract for Europe, where the player is aiming.
There is a similar situation with Dan Glazer, who is also in contact with him regarding the extension of his contract.
