Hapoel Jerusalem continued its amazing start after another victory this evening (Sunday), 1:3 over Hapoel Tel Aviv.
Despite the important points achieved by his players, the coach of the winner Ziv Aryeh, did not sound satisfied at the end.
"It wasn't a good game of ours, maybe our worst this year. We arrived soft. We played against their diamond a month and a half ago and made the same mistakes. We made a lot of mistakes. We didn't shine in the second half either. The 1:3 closed the game. We didn't play the The football I love, but I can't complain. We were very soft. I'm not complaining about the result. 2nd place? Irrelevant. Our goals haven't changed and we have to come out differently against Sakhnin."

Regarding the team's goals this season, Ziv added: "They haven't changed. We want to play good football, promote players. If we're in the same situation in 3 months, I'll change the goals. Top playoffs? Not one of them."
Ofek Biton, who scored against the team he belongs to, said: "I didn't get enough chances in Ness Ziona, I got here and now I'm playing. It wasn't a big game for us."

Sloboden Drapić: "We constantly think positively. I thought it would be completely different. We have to take care of it. Three times this team leads and concedes easily. We had good minutes, we need to work on it. We don't have much time. We played with a different method in the half First, the players are still learning. We have another week to prepare for the next game where we will look better."

David Kaltins said: "It is clear to everyone that there is a new team and new players. There are many good things to take from this game and move forward. The players worked and fought. We wanted more from them. But they translated their situations into goals. The result is disappointing, we all understand the importance of the loss this".
