After four wins, the Purples suffered a home loss in the league against Bnei Herzliya • Goodes tries to understand what didn't work: "We weren't focused throughout the game. In the final minutes, nothing worked for us" • Those around the club emphasized: "You can't score 13 points in a quarter at home and win "


After four wins in the first four games of the season in all formats, Gaia Godes' Hapoel Holon was stopped last night (Sunday) by Bnei Herzliya and suffered a disappointing home loss 79:74.

If in the first games of the season the champion did not shine at home but knew how to collect the victories, tonight the holder of the cup had other plans and he left the toto hall with the victory.

"From the first moment, nothing worked today, it was a bad game for us. We gave easy baskets, we were not focused at all. Herzliya scored 54 points in the paint and went to the penalty line 31 times compared to our only 17. When you get to the final minutes and nothing works for you, you A little wanting and trying to get back into the game is much more difficult," concluded Guy Goodes.

In the club, we noted the solid shooting night that the team's players had, as the main key to the loss, but we know that such givers will not return for much longer.

The Herzliya defense held the Holonites to less than 20 points for three quarters.

"You can't score 13 points in a quarter at home and win, it doesn't always work like that and against good teams you see it," said those around the team.

The club received a good offensive output from the three key players - Joe Ragland, Eric Green and Marvin Jones, who combined for 56 points out of the team's 74, but even the club knows that this may not be enough for most.

"We owe every contribution from other players, it's impossible to play in a rotation of eight or nine players for an entire season in two frameworks," said the club. .

In Holoniya, they prepared for Herzliya's physicality and face play, but in practice they were unable to stop Maurice Kemp and Julian Campbell, who combined for 36 points and led Sharon to control the rebounds (29 for Holon against 43 for Herzliya and for points in the paint, where Herzliya is twice as many as Holon - 20 against 40).

The Purples don't have much time to concentrate on the loss because already on Wednesday the Turkish Totu Glatserey will arrive at the Toto Hall for an intriguing battle as part of the third round of the group stage in the FIBA ​​Champions League, where Goodes' apprentices have a perfect record of two wins without losses.
