Summary: Beitar Jerusalem - Section Nes Ziona 2:3 (Sport 1)
Beitar Jerusalem beat Ness Ziona 2:3 yesterday (Saturday) and rose to fifth place in the table, but the highlight of the game is the fact that after such a long period it is played on Saturday at 3:00 PM, a time when families and children filled Teddy and created an atmosphere otherwise. 12,081 is the official number, but it does not include those who passed through the Saturday entrances and quite a few fans who were not checked at all due to the great pressure at the entrances. The club estimated the real number at more than 14 thousand.
The game time led to another kind of rift between Beitar fans Throughout this week, between the Sabbath keepers who could not come or see the game and some of them even hoped that as few Teddy fans as possible would come, and the side that wants normal hours for the games, to which children and families can be brought, not to mention the sane traffic on Shabbat on the roads (not including in the stadium area , where the plight of the parking lot and the mess also apply to Shabbat).
The issue is not 14,000 people, but the fact that a new generation of fans can be brought in during these hours, and this is something that Bitar as a business cannot afford to give up. Barak Abramov saw this very well yesterday, he was enthusiastic about the families that came, the atmosphere around him, he understood that it would be a crime Sportbi towards its audience not to ask the manager for at least 2-3 more games like this a year at this time - and it won't be easy.
Beitar has no extraordinary income, it doesn't have a business community around it like the other big teams, one that is expressed in subscriptions to the boxes and the stand of honor in the millions or even Heavy sponsors.
Her biggest asset for income is the simple audience and the next generation, she needs the father, mother and two children to come to operate the business properly.
14 thousand people who came yesterday did so with a team that was not easy to digest this year, the one that conceded the most goals, with the most losses, without too great expectations or ambitions, and still - they want to be a part and it should not be taken away from them.
By the way, the Shabbat gates were used and Beitar's management received a lot of messages from fans who entered through these gates. Beitar walked through the rain before the game. "For those who are affected by the matter and therefore demands that were fans to have a big happening outside and other events were rejected by the club.
Some of the editorial staff are Shabbat observant and this caused mobilization, even in the previous preparations, the half-time challenges to the audience and even the speaker Assaf Nahum who suddenly became an announcer.

On the professional side, those who continue to satisfy the crowd are the front trio of Jordan Shua-Yon Nicolasco-Danilo Asperia.
One is the king of assists, the other is the king of goals and the "crocodile", who is suddenly pushed aside a bit in terms of numbers, makes for a rare season.
It's a trio that holds a link and a defense that doesn't manage to concede less than two goals per game.
Although Beitar has three wins from the last four games, in the derby, without Nicolasco, it won't be the same attack, and the entire team defensive game will have to be completely different. If Beitar concedes two goals against the city rival, it will have a hard time winning.
The one who is expected to get the minutes in the derby and before that against Tiberias in the Cup is Stav Nahmani, whose minutes agreement against Maccabi Haifa has not been fulfilled and he can leave.
Abouxis said about the striker: "He has great potential, I think he is a very important player in our squad. Sometimes your strikers are in one form or another and things change, we will need Stav and I would be happy if he stayed here."
Eduardo Guerrero has no intention of returning to the squad at this stage.
Regarding procurement, there is currently nothing new.
The next few days are decisive regarding the return of Josua Machias, and Beitar say that "with the way Yossi Abuxis is hot on him, it would have been better if he had released his contract". Yanon Eliyahu, who is still not clear if he will be released from Maccabi Haifa.
Jordan Shua's contract ends at the end of the season, but the club has an option to extend it for another year, and if he continues in his current capacity in Beitar, they are expected to exercise it, so that even if he wants to go abroad in the summer, the Jerusalemites will be able to profit from the transfer fee.
Either way, later in the season the team will try to sit down with Shua on a new contract.
