Three more points: the trends after the fourth cycle in the Premier League

Maccabi Tel Aviv can't afford to falter at this stage of the league, Oren Hasson whitewashed Omer Azili in an act with a not really flattering smell, and congratulations to Yossi Aboksis and Barak Abramov for another impressive milestone

Summary of Premier League expatriates - round 4 (Sport1)

It is not clear how Maccabi Tel Aviv was able to afford the game last week in Ashdod. Assuming that the Yellows are not playing themselves in "Let Four to the League", meaning Maccabi Haifa - then the draw in Ashdod is a bit of a mistake. It is true that it is only two points that were lost, and the season is more Long, but the goal of Ivić and his players should be to open a maximum gap from Maccabi Haifa right now, even before the Greens finish their trip to Europe.

Not that an away game in Ashdod is a picnic, yes? The pitch is suitable for the football of 40 years ago, Ashdod itself is not a bad team And in general, it's clear that you can't win every week, but Ivić also knows that losing points against a team that a week before received a trio from Ziv Arya's camp is not serious, certainly not in the fourth round.

There is a situation, and this should be said with the required caution, that Ivitch has a few fixations here and there that do not allow him to grow and develop.

You could actually see it in Maccabi's loss in Nice - even when it turned out that the demon wasn't that bad, and it was possible to dare a little more, Maccabi continued to play in the same way, as if it was just waiting for the penalties to come.

And it's a shame, because Maccabi was worth the group stage.

She also deserves a championship, probably, but it won't really help her if she doesn't help herself.

What about the moral aspect?

Criminal aspect?

really?

The one who took advantage of Maccabi Tel's stumble with all their heart is Maccabi Haifa, who are still perfect in the league and beat Ness Ziona thanks to a double by the old-new invitee to the team, Omer Atzili. The moral stench around the young man refuses to sink in, and it would be better to define it precisely by those who bleached a little more The Jeep, the chairman of the football association, Oren Hasson.

Hasson, who is the head of one of two conglomerates that make a living from football deals and it seems that the thing that is farthest from their interest is the football fan, explained that it was decided to return Atzili to the national team after the association called the state attorney's office and got the impression that there was no criminal aspect to the actions attributed to Atzili.

Pretty.

What Mr. Hasson forgot a little bit is of course the moral aspect.

He apparently did not pick up the phone to the parents of the girls involved in the Atzili and Micah case, and if he did - it seems that he was under the impression that there is no educational-moral problem here and that is exactly what the Israel national team needs right now.

To be clear, Atzili has the right to earn a living and as soon as Yaakov Shahar chooses to shut his nose and pay him a salary, that is his business only.

This is the essence of private business and private ownership in football, and if this is what Shahar wants to do with his money, hello and hello.

But the Israel national team, for its pampering - the flights, the hotels, the meals, the grants (oh, the grants!), is not a private business, and it is not Yaakov Shahar's money.

It is my business and yours, funded by my taxes and yours and apparently belongs to me and you.

And what was said and what shall we say, to me, at least, and it seems that quite a few other people, have a problem with Azili - even if there is no criminal aspect to the actions attributed to him.

After all, on exactly the same weight, Mr. Davor Moens did not do anything criminal with his violent post during the Guardian of the Walls, he merely expressed his opinion - a legitimate act in a democracy.

And we still had quite a few problems - moral!

- with his presence in the team, which was unbearable in light of these things, and it is good that he is no longer there.

So why noble yes?

More in Walla!

And the big winners are

There is no doubt that the big winners of the fourth cycle in the Super League are not Ziv Aryeh and Hapoel Jerusalem, nor the guys from Ashdod, nor Maccabi Haifa, but the two lovable guys who destroyed Bnei Yehuda with their mistakes and buried it in the second league, then moved to save Beitar Jerusalem - without a significant acquisition, without a real vision and with a little too much caressing from the media - and managed to lose in the derby in the holy city for the first time since the days when Yitzhak Shamir was prime minister.
