Maccabi Haifa fans in Paris (Walla! Sport)

Maccabi Haifa is still fantasizing about the third place in Group 8 of the Champions League, which will arrange a direct qualification for the knockout stage of the Europa League.

To get there, Barak Becher's team will have to surprise and take points in the home game against Benfica Lisbon, and hope that disappointing Juventus lose to Paris Saint-Germain.

Ahead of the decisive week, in Italy they continue to deal with Juve's failure, and are convinced that the Israeli champions sent them an important message.

"Money doesn't buy happiness. Sometimes, it doesn't even buy a ticket to the Europa League," they wrote today (Friday) on the "Ilbianconero" website.

"Juventus' home in the Champions League is proof of this, because after the draw, Juve aimed for first place, and in practice it lost to teams with a much lower budget. The estimated value of Juventus players is 502 million euros, and Maccabi Haifa, with a value of only 21 million, looks even more Better than her."

"In the games against Maccabi Haifa, the huge gaps in the budget were not at all evident on the entire grass. The cliché of David's victory over Goliath has never seemed truer," they continued.

"With the help of the home crowd's push, Maccabi Haifa managed to take 3 points from Juventus, and made them pay dearly for it."

The games of Maccabi Haifa against Benfica and Juventus against Paris Saint-Germain will be held at the same time on Wednesday at 22:00.

As mentioned, whoever finishes in third place will qualify directly for the knockout stage of the Europa League, which this season will include a long list of senior teams such as Barcelona, ​​Atlético Madrid, Arsenal, Manchester United and probably also Tottenham and Milan.
