Summary: Maccabi Haifa - Municipal Kiryat Shmona 0:2 (Sport1)
Ironi Kiryat Shmona lost 2:0 to Maccabi Haifa this evening (Saturday) and dropped back below the red line, but it really wasn't the big drama of the evening in the northernmost team in the Premier League.
In an interview after the game, coach Nir Berkovich spoke about the difficult situation in which he received the team and mentioned the name of Menachem Koretsky whom he replaced, after that he appeared at the press conference where he cursed the journalist Itzik Aharonovich from "Radio Haifa" when the two clashed and a few minutes later it was also decided to fire him , almost two months after arriving in Kiryat Shmona.
When asked why he was nervous, Berkovic said at the very beginning of the press conference: "I'm not nervous about the game, but about the thing with the hat, that rag on the floor."
A heated confrontation minutes before the dismissal.

Berkovic didn't stop and continued after Aaronovitch responded: "Go, go away, go, zero zero. Barak Bacher also lost two games or drew and you are dirtying him. Shame on you, what do you have to do with football?!".
Aharonovich didn't stay obliged and replied: "It's not related to football, but I tried to arrange Hapoel Haifa for you when you asked. I arranged the first game of your career for you. A piece of zero. Come on, go home, chicken."
Berkovich replied, "Who are you anyway that you would fix it for me?", and right after that he got up and left the press conference room.
A few minutes later, as mentioned, he was fired?
