The Maccabi Haifa coach is disappointed after the 3:0 loss to Hapoel Jerusalem: "I was very angry at halftime, maybe I didn't prepare the team well for this game" • Ziv Aryeh: "A dream week, Guy Badash at the level of Omar Atzili"


A great drama took place this evening (Sunday) at Teddy Stadium when Hapoel Jerusalem defeated the champions Maccabi Haifa 3:0.

Green coach Barak Becher said after the game: "We didn't give up, we stayed in the game against PSG. We had to push ourselves to go into the break in a good way. We knew they were a good team and they could punish us and that's what happened."

"From the first minutes we saw that it wasn't that," the coach continued.

"I expected the players to pick themselves up. I was very angry at halftime. We got on the same team, we tried to do everything, there's nothing to be angry about. We'll rest properly and come back after the break.

"Maybe I didn't prepare this game well, but it's football and in football there are days like that. Sometimes when you come off such a high hype, and we weren't able to come aggressively with our pace, and that's what happens. The ability in the league games so far has been less good, but we knew how to win We blackmailed ourselves, you shouldn't lose like that. But that's what happened.

On a possible reinforcement, Bachar added: "If we think there is another Israeli player who can strengthen us, we will bring him. I want many things, but you don't always have what you want."

On the other side, the happy Ziv Aryeh said: "A dream week. We've been playing good football since the beginning of the season, so we didn't have to change too much. Of course we prepared for what Maccabi Haifa did. We wanted to be brave and didn't want to settle for compliments."

"Now we have a derby in the Toto Cup on Thursday and we need to get a good result there. We will have a happy Rosh Hashanah. Last season was our first in the Premier League, this year we knew we would have a better team. Our goals are to have a good season, promote players and make the crowd happy If in February-March we are in a place that leads to the playoffs, we will talk about it."

"I've been saying for years that Badesh is at the level of Atzili. He will give us much more. I knew he would be upset about the substitution, but I wanted to keep the result. Badesh is allowed to be angry with me, he earned it."

Dolev Haziza: "Our game was not good, we deserved to lose. Lack of energy and lack of ability from everyone. Up until now we have received compliments, and now we deserve to be in the lead. We were not there and we did not come from the beginning. Sometimes you have to receive this blow to raise the energies. Barak He will give us the head we deserve. I take responsibility and we all take responsibility. After the break we have Maccabi Tel Aviv in Sami Ofer and I'm sure we will look different there."

"We all came with one goal to win, but we were all weak, we didn't fight for each other like we are used to. I wouldn't say a drop in tension. I take responsibility for this loss and I apologize to our crowd that came to cheer us on. I'm sure that in the next game we will look better . Maybe we needed to shake it up."

were we wrong
