After the game I stayed sitting in the stands for long minutes, with no desire to get up, no desire to speak, looking for the strength to get up and leave this cursed stadium that since the renovation doesn't really feel like home to me.
Yom Kippur this week and the management of Hapoel Tel Aviv has a lot to apologize to.
And I find it hard to believe that they will be forgiven.
Coaches changed and the lineups changed, but one thing remained in Hapoel - horribly bad conduct.
Players were sold without proper replacements, and the management is trying to ride the wave of success of the young teams with a throw into the deep waters of youth players without buoys.
Professionally there is nothing to say about the game, professionally there is nothing to say about the team, the team looks like a gathering of children on an asphalt field in an elementary school that the substitute sports teacher threw them a ball and told them to start playing.
I have already seen students who approach the third time with more desire than how Hapoel's players approach the ball.

And the truth?
I'm already tired of spreading accusations, as long as the Nisanovs remain in Hapoel, only the name of the club will remain and even that they manage to crack little by little.
If Maccabi Tel Aviv is trying to restore its squad from Ivić's championships, Hapoel is trying to restore Beitar's squad from 2019. What didn't work for Teddy three years ago, certainly won't work for us either.
We have a derby in a week and really?
I don't have the mental strength for that.
They say the wheel always turns in the end, but right now it's crushing us down.
If anyone accidentally sees a light at the end of the tunnel, it's probably Orr Oostwind or another C-League acquisition player that the Nissanovs decided to sign.
