Silence conquers the storm: Bnei Sakhnin is waiting for Maccabi Haifa Israel today

Moments after the 3-0 home loss to Kiryat Shmona in the seventh round, some members of Bnei Sakhnin's management sat down and the recommendation to chairman Muhammad Abu Yunis was unequivocal: to carry out a shock and fire coach Sharon Mimar. Mimar: "From your ruin and your destroyers will come out of you," when he hints at an alleged striving regarding his status.

Abu Yunis heard the things, but at the same time another incident occurred. The contact Biram Kiel, one of the influencers in the club and certainly in the locker room, sent a message to the management: "Mimar is a good coach, we are a good team. It is forbidden to perform a shock after one bad game." "In the past, even after the game, the coach was fired, even before leaving the locker rooms on the way home," said officials in Sakhnin. "This time things were more balanced, and it paid off. For everyone. "The continuation is known. Mimar closed an excellent round and Sakhnin is already in third place, after a point in Bloomfield against Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Kiel's unreserved support for the coach did its thing and expanded to the entire locker room.

"Most of the players like Mimar and play for him," one of them explained, "he is just trying to promote us. He has a good staff, he even takes care of us with supplements, things and other conditions that are related to professionalism and were not here. Biram goes hand in hand with him, and management does "What is needed will be said to her credit. All this together is worth success."

Very few coaches have finished a season as Sakhnin coaches.

Marco Belbul and Yossi Aboksis are still considered individuals of virtue, but the team in the sector admits: "We are on the right track, not letting things from the outside seep into the locker room, and only that will be the key to finishing in the top playoffs."

Alongside these things, it is important to note that Sakhnin's management complied with almost all of Mimar's requests in building the staff.

"There was a deviation from the budget because it was possible to bring in good players," said a source in the management. To keep them, we were a bottom team no matter who the coach was. "

Ready to sit down

Sakhnin will host Maccabi Haifa tomorrow (Saturday, 19:50) in Netanya, after Doha closed about two weeks ago.

About 7,000 Greens fans will fill one stand, while about 6,000-5,000 Sakhnin fans will also come.

Sakhnin will miss the dismissed Moti Bershetsky.

Goalkeeper Gad Amos, who suffered threats on his life after the 1-1 draw against Maccabi Tel Aviv, spoke with Mimar yesterday and the coach reassured him.

On the other hand, Maccabi Haifa will arrive with quite a few problems in defense.

Bogdan Planic (yellow), and San Menachem (injured) will be absent.

Raz Meir will be at Bachar's disposal and assuming he opens as a left defender, the tendency is to play with Ofri Arad as a stopper while Jose Rodriguez will be appointed as a right defender. 

Were we wrong?
