Maccabi Tel Aviv's season is reaching another significant peak moment, and it will be held far from home. Robbie Keane and his players host Ukraine's Zorya Luhansk in Serbia tonight knowing that if they win, they will take a very big step towards the knockout stage of the Conference League.
The third-round match was supposed to take place in Israel in October, but was postponed due to the war. Two weeks ago, the teams met in Poland, where Zorya is hosting due to its war, and the Yellows won 1-3. The person who stood at the gate of Maccabi Tel Aviv at the time, and will still stand today in light of the successful debut is the Panamanian Orlando Mosquera. Milson was preferred over Dor Turgeman on the left wing and the right defensive position was taken by Avishai Cohen.
If it wins, Maccabi Tel Aviv, currently in second place, will open a five-point gap from Zoria. With first place in the group leading directly to the Conference Finals and second place to the last 32.
