Hot in the Khodorov complex. ONE has learned that about 50 Hapoel Tel Aviv fans broke into the team’s concluding training session yesterday ahead of Bnei Sakhnin today (Saturday, 15:00), when they encouraged the players, but also cursed the owners brothers Sharon and Itzik Nisnov, Omri Altman and Roi Zikri, and vacated the grass sale only after Salim Toema assistant coach and Nir Klinger asked them personally. Police arrived to maintain order.
Altman snatched curses and also chants like “You’re a ballerina,” “Take down the bow,” “You’re not fighting, start fighting, you’re a captain.” Another shouted at the captain: “You smile, laugh, you do not invest.” The player later brought up a story with a message to those fans who encouraged the players compared to the minority he cursed, in addition to receiving messages of encouragement and support from the audience on social media.
Al Zikri came in with complaints because he wore yellow soccer shoes and for being soft on the whole issue of his injury, after which he returned to practice only recently.
Only after a few minutes at the grass in Wolfson did they agree to vacate and allow the players to continue training. It should be noted that the fans who broke into training cursed Itzik Nisnov in the face, on the field, and insulted him directly following their protest against the club’s owners from the last few months, demanding that he and his partners sell the club and vacate their place.
While the game against Sakhnin will be the first in the presence of an audience in the Premier League for more than a year, there is great excitement among the red crowd, in general from the comeback to Bloomfield, and in particular – the importance of the game against Sharon Mimar’s team – but the excitement seems to slide.
Hapoel Tel Aviv expect to fill the allowed amount (1,500 fans) despite the call of the “Ultras Hapoel” organization for fans not to enter the stadium and encourage the team from outside, with the incident in the concluding training course indicating the warm atmosphere expected in Jerusalem Boulevard before the game. But this is first and foremost a protest against the return outline and their desire to return to the stands in much larger quantities.
Shlomo and Serdel in the picture, Stein Yiftach Hod: “Wants to make the audience happy”
After the stormy training session at Wolfson, Klinger’s players completed their preparations for Sakhnin, with Ben Bitton, Eddie Gottlieb and Shlomi Azulai absent. While the defender will undergo an MRI scan early next week to diagnose the severity of his shoulder injury, the brakeman (who received a shot to treat groin inflammation) and the striker (recovering from ankle sprain) will rest on Saturday and are scheduled to join Maccabi Netanya on Tuesday in the quarterfinals.
Without them, Klinger would not have practiced the vehicle, regardless of the clutter in training, when he was considering his steps in order to overcome the shortcomings. The lack of a bit on the right side of the defense means that the coach has in recent days trained Raz Shlomo as a stopper alongside Sianda Kolo and Iyad Abu Abid as a right-back, as well as Niv Serdel in another option that will keep Abu Abid in the center of defense along with the South African stopper.
Although Ofek Bitton and Emanuel Boateng practiced alternately this week, he is expected to leave his link intact, with Shai Elias, Dan Einbinder and Omri Altman, with Osher Davida and Lidor Cohen placed in the attack and in front of them, separately, Raz Stein. The striker, who came in as a replacement for Azoulay in the WC and cooked Abu Abid’s winning goal when he showed good ability, is supposed to receive the credit, although Gil Yitzhak also practiced intermittently at his expense.
“We are of course in the normal procedure of season games for us,” he said Nir Klinger Ahead of the game. “Every game in the league is critical. We prepare for almost every game, but as the cycle goes by and we get closer to the end of the league, then obviously things are more stressful for everyone. All the teams at the bottom are stressed. We are in relatively good momentum and want to continue it. “We were very accurate and meticulous.” .
“We are entering a very difficult week, we have three games, the professional team has prepared us best for the game,” he said. Rz stand. “We are excited to play for the first time in front of our home crowd and hope that later on they will be able to reach higher amounts. I really want to make them happy. Expect a tough game, we know its importance. We give everything to win it and with God’s help we will win.”
Estimated composition: Ernestas Shtakus, Iyad Abu Abid, Sianda Kolo, Raz Shlomo (Niv Serdel), Danny Gruper, Shai Elias, Dan Einbinder, Omri Altman, Osher Davida, Lidor Cohen and Raz Stein (Gil Yitzhak).
