Maccabi Haifa are satisfied with the victory yesterday (Thursday) 1:4 over Bnei Sakhnin.
Although this is only a game in the Toto Cup, the club emphasized that "it was an excellent preparation for the league and the team looks good despite the break".
At the same time, in Haifa there is a concern about the injuries of the defender Abdulai Sek and the midfielder Charon Sherry.
The two were injured yesterday and were replaced, and the professional team hopes that these are not serious injuries.
Sherry injured his quadriceps muscle.
As soon as he felt sensitive, he asked for a change and went down to the bench.
The assessment is that it is not a serious injury and the Dutchman will be fit until the league game against Sakhnin next Monday, and possibly even for the cup match with Hapoel Nof HaGalil the following Monday.

Only a minor injury?
Regarding Sek, the player has sensitivity in his groin and he will also be tested today.
Also in the case of the Senegalese, it is not a rupture but a sensitivity for which he was replaced.
These two join the list of 11 injured or sick players who were absent against Sakhnin, although some are expected to return in the coming days.
Back to the game.
Coach Barak Becher decided to start with the brakeman Rami Gershon, who excelled and was praised.
The veteran Gershon admitted: "I am thankful for every moment on the field and continue as long as I can."
Gershon also added: "I think this is one of the greatest teams in Israeli football. What I like even more about our team is that we constantly just want to improve and progress and I hope we will do good things."
