Summary: Nes Ziona section - Hapoel Tel Aviv 3:4 (Sport1)

Before we touch on the Saturday games, I was interested in responding to my friend Paz Hasdai's column from yesterday.

Contrary to what it seems to most surfers, Hesdai actually cheered for Maccabi Haifa itself, but was stunned by the euphoria around him at the end of the game against Paris Saint-Germain.

"Of course there was a victory, but in this case, as I recall, Maccabi Haifa lost in general," he wrote, "There is no intention here to diminish Maccabi Haifa, which has a truly wonderful team this year. It is at its peak, it is at its best, with the right energies, the quality staff, the coach The perfect. But how much can you be happy about a loss? Can it happen in countries with small teams but sporting pride, like Serbia or Denmark for example, when you are so excited by 3:1 to the opponent?"



I don't know what happens in Serbia or Denmark when a team of the size of Paris arrives, but the UEFA observer who was present at the game testified that in other places it is much worse, that our provinciality is next to nothing compared to other places. Although she did not refer to the result, only to the commotion around, in the stadium Haifa was minor in her eyes compared to different fields in Europe, and still, it can be concluded that in many places Messi and Neymar are treated as gods no less than in Israel, and it is possible that there too they are enthusiastic about one goal or another against a football powerhouse.

This is not surprising, considering that this is the most expensive team in the world, with the brightest players on the globe.

Maccabi Haifa played against this team, scored first and was close to a second goal.

It should also be remembered that two of the last three campaigns of Israeli teams in the Champions League ended without a field goal, and in general, the result is less important - Maccabi Haifa simply looks like a worthy and appropriate team for the Champions League.



So yes, to say "we have returned to the era of losses with dignity" is perhaps the smallest thing, but if the State of Israel has been talking for 70 years about that goal that we did not see by Stelmach against the Soviet Union, it is also permissible to file in the memory 60 dreamlike minutes of Maccabi Haifa, including a great goal that we did see, Against a team with an annual salary budget of almost 400 million euros.

There is no medical solution

With three points out of a possible 15, it is natural to place the blame for Hapoel Tel Aviv's situation on Kobi Yarofa.

On the other hand, it is no less natural to see medicine as only a part, and not even the main part, of failure.

When a club recognizes opportunities, sells players without recognition and doesn't plug the holes, no wonder the team looks the way it does.

Sharon and Itzik Nisanov are an example and example of bad, stingy and amateurish management, one with which Hapoel Tel Aviv will achieve nothing, with or without medicine on the lines.



As of writing these lines Meriva is still the coach, but who knows how long - he may vacate his place within hours or in two days.

At the moment, it doesn't look like he will continue there.

The thing is, even if he leaves, and no matter under what conditions and in what relationship, he knows that no bridge is burned.

When the next coach fails, and with this staff he will fail, Merova will again be called to the banner, as he was called the previous two times, and if he is available he will again agree to coach Hapoel Tel Aviv under the Nissanovs.

Three terms?

Expect Wednesday and Thursday.

That's how it is in the Premier League.

You have to stay on the wheel and you only have 10-11 teams that see you as a candidate to coach them.

As long as Medicine wants to continue coaching, Hapoel Tel Aviv will be taken into account.

This is the reality and it is funny, sad, grotesque and above all indicates the state of the club.

Don't let anything confuse you - Medicine doesn't want to resign, the Nisanovs don't want to resign, everyone against everyone but in the end, even if he leaves, he will always be an option to return.

And if he leaves, let's arrange to meet and discuss the renewed match again in the summer.

maybe even earlier.

Farthest from a diamond

More than a year ago, in June of last year, Ofir Sa'ar and Viniv Tuchman reported here about the growing interest of Maccabi Tel Aviv in Aviel Zargari.

Moshe Hogg quickly tweeted then: "Before it gets out of control, let's make two things clear: 1. All Premier League teams, without exception, want Zargari. 2. Zargari is not for sale."



The celebrant had a good reason to make this clarification then.

Zargari is considered Beitar's diamond, the one player that the fans will not forgive if he is sold. Those days, just over a year ago, let's remember, have passed and are gone. The interest of Maccabi Tel Aviv was replaced by the saga of Zargari's signing at Maccabi Haifa and the immediate loan to Betar, what which was seen as a deal of mercy and assistance to the Jerusalem club.

Within a year, the relationship turned from the number 1 talent into a modern version of Chen Azriel.

If it were possible to turn back time and give the celebrant another chance, Zargari would probably have met Beitar in Bloomfield last night while he was on the opponent's bench.

Even the celebrant himself has a part in the unreasonable expectations from Zargari, when he spoke to Lihag and created an unreasonable level of expectations from the relationship.

When Goni Naor was mentioned as a candidate for Maccabi Haifa, many eyebrows were raised, but Naor has done no less and maybe even more than Zargari so far in the Premier League.



The deal with Maccabi Haifa has already been signed, but Ya'akov Shahar left Beitar and the player the option to cancel it. Whether or not this will happen, it is not clear how Zargari will be able to continue at Beitar Jerusalem.

In the current group it is simply impossible to succeed.

He himself also has a contributory fault - he is not dominant enough in a team where it is not difficult to be dominant - and still, in the current atmosphere it is difficult to place the responsibility on him.

The supporting team is not talented enough for him, the question is if he is talented enough to be in the supporting team of Maccabi Haifa, and another question is if and when he will be given a real opportunity to do it.

They wake up George

Vladan Ivitch said after the victory of Maccabi Tel Aviv in the training match against Beitar Jerusalem that "until we scored the first goal, we had difficulty." Although it is true, it is a phrase that sounds casual, seemingly, somewhere between "we always come to win" and "Life from Shabbat to Shabbat". In practice, it is advisable to dwell on these things.



Maccabi Tel Aviv did have difficulty creating situations in the first half until Gabi Kanikovski's goal. The attack seemed to continue the sleight of hand against Ashdod, with one difference: this time George Jovanovich was On the field. The Serbian scored three goals in the first two rounds, then received a red card, did not play in Ashdod and returned rusty. It may be only minor problems at the start of the season, it may be that there is a mismatch with Ivic's method, but with the rise of Oskar Gloch also comes Temporary sinking of the only natural striker in the team's attack.

Not the same player.

In games like last night's, Maccabi Tel Aviv can afford a weak game from Jovanovic.

In the next cycle, she arrives in Haifa.

Against the champion, who will come with tremendous momentum and possibly even with a two-point advantage, it will be much more difficult for her, especially when Eran Zahavi is also not brilliant at the moment.

There the yellows will already need their striker much sharper.

in the small

Even before the quintet she snatched from Maccabi Tel Aviv in the first round, Benny Raina was marked as a sure candidate to return to Laumit soon.

Five rounds have passed, the team still hasn't won, but recorded three draws, with another loss coming only in overtime.

Not a particularly impressive record, but the way Hapoel Tel Aviv, Beitar Jerusalem and even Hapoel Haifa look, don't be surprised if Sharon Mimar's team makes life difficult for the rivals at the bottom, and at the very least they will no longer be classified as "automatic relegators".

Son Jung Min entered as a substitute, scored a hat trick and helped Tottenham record a crushing victory over Leicester, 2:6.

27 years ago, the Tottenham striker entered as a substitute in the away game against Southampton, scored a hat trick and the Roosters won 2:6.

His name was Ronnie Rosenthal.
