: "We got too soft goals. We did not do things well and did not take advantage of the few opportunities we got. It is a field that is difficult to play football, we did not take care of the small things and lost. "After the second goal there was a mess and a whole salad, and we did not know how to react. We played against an opponent who made it difficult for us, on a field that is difficult to play on. We had to win other things, not necessarily football, and we did not do that."
On the championship fight: "We play against rivals, not against air. There are fights at the bottom, for the playoffs, next week we also have a game with Hapoel Tel Aviv fighting for the playoffs. There are no easy games, we have to do the work."
On Drapich: "I really appreciate him as a professional and an amazing person. I'm at least happy for him for this victory. I love him and Izzy and hope they both get along."
"They wanted more from us."

, who received a yellow card on Thursday and will miss the Haifa derby for him: "We played against a very strong team on a difficult field. A lot of things did not work today, the professional team will emphasize things for us and we will learn from that. On our own, we did not think about the other side, but we did not do the job and we missed an opportunity to open a gap and escape a bit to the league. We now have an important game and the league is still long. They are fighting for this title. "
