Great joy in Beitar Jerusalem after the victory over MS Ashdod, which raised the team to fourth place in the table, bringing it significantly closer to the top playoffs. "People have already forgotten what a weak team we had a few months ago," say Beitar Jerusalem. "If we reach the top playoffs this season and maybe a cup final, it will be like winning the championship, but we mustn't take our foot off the gas."
Coach Yossi Abouxis did not like the ability displayed by his trainees in the second half and explained that some of the players were under pressure, but he too is very satisfied that his team is close to securing a place in the top playoffs: "If you had told me at the beginning of the season after we had 6 losses, that we would be within touching distance of the top playoffs, We would all say we are crazy."
Beitar were satisfied that 16,000 fans came to the game and believe that if the team qualifies for the top playoffs it will make millions in profit from ticket sales, given the fact that the crowd comes in droves and in the playoffs it will host Maccabi Haifa, Maccabi Tel Aviv, and Hapoel Beer Sheva, every such game He has the potential for over 20 thousand fans.
Coach Yossi Aboksis claimed that for him it would have been better to hold all the games in the evening so that all the Shabbat-observing public could come to the team's games, as did defender Avishai Cohen who said: "I think it is a bit of an injustice to the religious who subscribed and also want to come see the game, but then again Things that don't depend on us, it depends on the manager."
Regarding his personal ability in recent times, Cohen said: "I'm happy that lately I feel much better. I improved something that was difficult for me in terms of the fact that I used to be an attacking player and my defense was not that stable. I'm very happy that I was able to improve it and put it in my head, That before I was a defensive player and that now it also proves itself."
