A tie breaker, a Money Time player, the king, these were just some of the many compliments that Eran Zahavi received yesterday, after he scored on his debut in Maccabi Tel Aviv, and another super critical goal in the return match against Ares Thessaloniki.
Zahavi's goal reminded many of his goal in the famous 2:3 derby under Paulo Sousa.
"If we put a long hair in the hack, then it will be like a rag, but yes, this goal was a bit reminiscent of the goal in the derby", Zahavi himself said: "This goal gave us an advance for the rematch because 0:1 is a fragile result, but we will have a very difficult game away."
On his collaboration with Oskar Gloch: "There is no doubt that Oskar is a very great talent and we saw what he did in the European Championship. He still has room to move forward and where to strive. Good players can play together and understand each other easily. I think the more we play together our connection will improve And he will get better. I will try on the grass that he will take the good things."

Zahavi commented on the extreme change in ability compared to last week's game against Zira and said: "We beat Zira 0-3 in the first game, we came here and the atmosphere was sleepy, there were a few injuries, less energy, and sometimes when the opponent is weak it also drags you into a less good game. We want to move forward , every player has to pick himself up and against Aris Thessaloniki many players did that and they deserve all the respect."
Zahavi also talked about the injury he suffered that prevented him from playing until now: "I arrived at the camp. I should have arrived a few days later, but I didn't control myself and with the energy I went straight into training with the team at 100% and that shouldn't have happened. I felt good, I did 3 Training with the team, then there were some complications.
"I have no experience with surgeries, but we worked according to the plan, but I pushed myself a little too much and then we went backwards, but maybe it was for the best. Thank God, I'm getting better every day. The team needed me against Aris and I'm glad I could help them."
