Optimism in Bnei Rayna after the victory yesterday (Saturday) 2:3 in the battle of the bottom against Sektia Nes Ziona.
At the end of the game, chairman Saeed Basul praised coach Sharon Mimer for managing the match, when even in a situation of being behind, the priority was for attacking players on the grass.
One of them, striker Mark Costa, finished with a hat trick, which is worth 3 points for the northern club for the first time since the victory over Bnei Sakhnin in the ninth round.
"Costa can be a tie-breaker in our league," said Reina, "he is the most expensive player in our club's history, but it was clear to us that to stay in the league we need a striker of the highest level available. Costa costs us as much as three players in half a season, but it's worth every penny if we stay in the league".

The only criticism there was, is around the decision to let Osama Halaila kick the penalty in extra time, when the score was 2:3, and even though Costa is the team's penalty kicker.
"The game wasn't over, Costa was hot and had to kick the penalty. If we hadn't won then everything would have been different."
In the final round of the regular league, Raina will go to an away game in Teddy against Hapoel Jerusalem, who secured a place in the top playoffs yesterday.
"They have already done their part, our road to staying is still long. We need to continue the momentum" concluded the ranks of the newcomer.
