Summary: Hapoel Tel Aviv - Beitar Jerusalem 1:0/Sport1
With 2 points out of a possible 21, we can already say that Hapoel Tel Aviv is in a major crisis.
Last night's 1:0 loss to Beitar Jerusalem was too much for the Red crowd, who want the head of the coach Borche Lema. The management at this stage is behind him, but things are fluid. Next week, the Reds have three games to play - a Teddy Cup match against Hapoel Jerusalem and two more league games , games in which the team can come back to life or lose the season and the pressure cooker is only bubbling. On Wednesday, David and Michael Mintzberg will bring the fans into the conversation, they are expected to hear harsh criticism for the decision to give the reins to the inexperienced Llama and the damage they claim has been done.
Why is indeed inexperienced and it shows The Reds have the points, but it's not just him. Hapoel Tel Aviv was built this season on a large amount of young people or players who were not in clubs and pressure of this magnitude, when it bases itself on five or six players to whom it pays a lot of money to lead the team. When the two who were in the best form Most like Altman and Rodrigues are injured, when Mavis Cibota doesn't find himself, when Hisham Laios doesn't provide numbers and Alan Ozbolt doesn't feel safe in the club, it affects the whole team.
The red crowd demands his head.
Running away to why/Danny Maron
With or without a coach, these are the players who have to take the team on themselves and that's not happening.
It's not that Beitar Jerusalem came with an unusual tactic yesterday. In the first 20 minutes, it was hungrier, its players were enthusiastic, jumped on the balls and embarrassed Hapoel Tel Aviv when too many players simply didn't give everything they had. These are things With all due respect to the criticism of a coach, the part of the players is not small. There can't be Sheli-On Mizrahi sailing on the wing and Mavis Chibuta not in his area, or players seeing Soro taking over the middle and acting as if they are helping the defense. With all due respect to the weakness of the coach , there are players in Hapoel Tel Aviv who found it easy to hide behind him.
If the loss is not enough, the Reds will be prosecuted following the stoppage of the game for throwing flares, when there is a suspended sentence against the team, but the court has the right not to apply it since it was determined before the reform that was made in punishment. And yet , the derby events will also be discussed in court and the team may suffer a points reduction and/or a high financial fine. A points reduction will make the team's chances of finishing in the top playoffs slim.
