Boxing Babies: The bright spot of the crazed Hapoel Tel Aviv

The victory over Hapoel Haifa was one of the greatest for Hapoel Tel Aviv in the last decade, because it was achieved with players who until a few months ago played in the boys.

Summary: Hapoel Haifa - Hapoel Tel Aviv 2: 0 (Sport 1)

1.

One might wonder for another month about Mladen Krestajic's pitcher, if he turned Maccabi Tel Aviv into an underdog team - contrary to its DNA, or he just thinks, and creates, and tries to surprise every time again, also and especially because his tools must be shaken, Cleansing dust and some good anti-corrosion acid. The staff of Maccabi Tel Aviv is busy, it has players who have been in the club for years, have taken championships, play in Europe every season between 8 and 16 games. The satiety was evident in all.

Krestic ventilates the room, opens the shutters, lets the sun in.

Maccabi is aggressive, fighting, pressing, fast, trying.

There may be motifs of Maccabi Petah Tikva here, but when you add a club, tradition, crowd, you get a candidate for the cup here - this is in the near term - and a candidate for a new run for the championship next season.

But the conclusion from two games against rivals ranked higher than it in the table, games that sometimes seemed to eliminate that gap.

True, Khalayla's goal was Mazliki, and Omri Glazer would have stopped Kanikovsky's kick if it had been fired directly, but even at 0-0 Maccabi Haifa would have reached the top.

Hapoel Beer Sheva met Har yesterday, next week the midoirma will be waiting for it

It's her season game, at her house, in front of her crowd. Her two victories in the first round against the other two greats placed her in first place, but all along the feeling was that Maccabi Haifa was better. Yesterday the table aligned with this statement and the truth that other things as well. Beer Sheva is losing the credit it gained in those two games, one of which, in Haifa, was a super lucky one.

Beer Sheva does not have the strengths of Maccabi Haifa, it does not have its charisma, and it played yesterday against a team in fourth place and did not try to win, at least not in the second half. And it does not work in a championship fight in the league below the big three, which, as the saying goes, does not excel in interfering with teams that are a little above it. This season the championship will fall in games between the big ones, also because of their timing. Playing week after week against one of your two main rivals, this is a playoff culture. And this round will continue in both playoff rounds. Momentum of a season is set in such a series, ask in England how teams get into the Christmas games and how they get out of them.

Where does Be'er Sheva fail?

Not on defense, nor on the link.

Its failure is in translating this game into offensive numbers.

Among the ten outstanding conquerors in the league there are 9 attacking players and one contact, Ramzi Spori, and there is another from Be'er Sheva only Nikita Rokavica, who when he is neutralized, it is very difficult to produce numbers.

It is very difficult to win the championship with a striker who produces one number, even if the team plays with me Schechter, Eugene Ansa or Sagiv Yehezkel.

Need another one, otherwise it will end up in the deputies at best, and maybe less than that at worst.

Roni Levy was furious at the break: "Wake up."

3. Maccabi Haifa is a pure pleasure.

Not easy to go down in the half with 0: 2, in front of 10 players.

In most cases the tension goes down, the muscles are perceived, the intensity disappears.

The honor of the opponent starts to play and yesterday Maccabi Petah Tikva was really not bad in large parts of the second half, but Maccabi Haifa has extraordinary strengths, that when they are released from the collar, they prey.

Haifa is dismantling everything that moves.

In the second round, it is claimed, the sub-groups begin to produce points and align with their potential.

Maccabi Haifa is a blessing, they will play against it, they will see a presence.

These challenges starve her as she moves.

I do not remember Maccabi Petah Tikva so helpless in front of such teams.

She lives from games like this, a mission on a wheel, from being the perfect underdog.

Haifa does not see with the eyes, and plays the same thing against each team.

This is Barak Bachar's strength, and Hapoel Beer Sheva's second championship season syndrome in 2017 is evident in Haifa in 2022: it is ruthless.

4. Shlomi Azulai, born in 1989, was photographed yesterday for a story with the five youth players of Hapoel Tel Aviv who played with him yesterday in the impressive 0: 2 victory in Haifa over the crumbling Hapoel Haifa.

There were, also in the lineup, two youth players born in 2004.

For those who do not know, the youth team has three yearbooks: those who immigrated from boys A, those who are in the second season of youth, and a number of other age exceptions.

Hapoel went up to play 3 players yesterday who were in the boys' team last season.

No wonder the youth team lost yesterday, because half of its team moved to the seniors, due to various constraints, but gained the goal of the youth department: to provide players for the seniors.

To let a 17- and 4-month-old player join this lineup in 1969, that the seniors of Hapoel Tel Aviv can only smile.

In 1969, a 17-year-old and four-month-old player (Ronny Calderon) brought them a championship. In 2000 these were Kashtan babies. Hapoel Tel Aviv does not have too many championships, but each championship and its uniqueness. And no, Hapoel will not win the championship this season, but if these players are not sold on demand to finance the depleted box office, they can at least fantasize about running for the championship, which is also something in this crazed club.

There were Jerry babies in the 60s and as mentioned at the beginning of the millennium Kashtan babies. Forgive me Kobe Medicine, but he is not in the club enough for such a degree to be associated with his name. These are Boxa babies, named after Omar Boxenbaum, the quiet and so smart professional manager who created a future for Hapoel Tel Aviv. I have known Omar Senior since the age of 11. The fastest player in the 2003 yearbook and one of the fastest in Israeli football.

He was the star of Maccabi Tel Aviv North until the unification between the north and the south that takes place in the boys' team.

Something went wrong there, they say it's because of Patrick van Leven.

This kid, who also played for Klinger last season and after two days kidnapped Corona and developed a long cube that took him months to recover from, will go a long way.

And he's currently playing for a club that will give him the tools to go far.

How did Hapoel Tel Aviv become Maccabi Petah Tikva with an audience?

Owner shake.

She's not sure she's complaining about this reality right now.

There is no football fan - certainly in tough teams of the day - who would not be happy that the children of the youth department would make him jump in goals and celebrate victories.

I think in the last decade, yesterday's victory is one of the few bright spots in the Hapoel Tel Aviv football club.

5.

Not fun to sit outside for half a season and wait for offers.

There are full of coaches who are waiting for their opportunity and sometimes do not choose the options.

One such is Shai Barda, a great coach, with charisma and a deep understanding of football, who received an offer from Hapoel Nof Hagalil.

It could be a slap in the face to a career, and yesterday it burned him especially.

Too bad.
