The goals in the 1:2 of Bnei Rayna against Maccabi Haifa/Sport1
Maccabi Haifa lost this evening (Sunday) 2:1 to Bnei Rayna, and completed a particularly frustrating day, when it started with disappointing news for them, because the court returned a point to Maccabi Tel Aviv.
But after the complaints about the reduction of the point at the court and the return of the point to Maccabi Tel Aviv, the champion was surprised on the green like last season, and simply collapsed in the second half.
Shlomi Azoulai and Kays Ganem converted after a penalty by Anan Halaili, and at the end of the day Bnei Rayna secured a historic top playoff.
A difficult day for the team.

At the end, Masai Dago expressed his anger at the fact that the news about the removal of the net was on the day of the match.
"Only in the State of Israel," said Dego, "did they give the point back to Maccabi Tel Aviv, but why on the day of a game? They did it to Beitar as well."
I don't understand why this is happening.
Want to return a point?
give it back
But why should we bother with it on the day of a match, why should the players get upset about it, instead of bothering with the game we should calm the players down.
It's something that makes you want to throw up this industry."
About the game: "Bad feelings.
We came with a good attitude, we started well, I knew we would fall in the second half, we wanted to score a quick goal, and we could have scored a second goal, if Gedi had found Lior... we could have finished the game.
The second half was a disaster, we were very weak.
We didn't deserve to win, but there's nothing we can do, we think ahead."

On the change: "In the second half they changed to a 2:4:4 line and it made it difficult for us. But I don't make excuses. We were very anemic, we weren't in our rhythm, we made bad decisions in the last part, we let them come back from nothing. But we are a team that has passed Plenty this year, nothing will break us, and we will continue."
On the fatigue and the load: "It's not just fatigue, despite the unusual load. From the 60th minute we stood up, and Raina felt it. And they gained confidence and scored the second. We'll have to keep going, and believe in ourselves, after that we'll go into the break, and I'm sure it'll be fine, we're a good team ".
On load sharing: "We have many players who are out, if they were here it would help. Hamed and Casa are not registered in Europe, Danil is injured, and there are players here who are supposed to play in Fiorentina as well, it is not easy, but we will do everything, we have Hapoel Tel on Sunday Aviv, nothing will break us."

Lior Rafalov added: "The players are obliged to go and thank the crowd, no matter the result. We usually win and everyone is happy, but you have to know how to swallow losses and stay together. This is what makes Maccabi Haifa a strong team. I have a crack in my rib cage, I hope to recover as much as possible Hurry up and take advantage of every minute during the national team break. It was important for me to perform here, I couldn't play against Fiorentina. Reina played football, they deserve a big shot, but we should have been more organized in the second half."
Regarding the point that was returned to Maccabi Tel Aviv today, he said: "The previous cycle we finished in first place and today, before we played, we were at minus 2. We cannot control the timing of these things, but there is a deliberate hand here and I don't need to add."
