Although they did not manage to leverage the 0: 2 over Maccabi Petah Tikva in the previous round and connect for the first time this season a second consecutive victory, Hapoel Tel Aviv tonight (Monday) put together a sixth game in a row without a loss and parted ways with 0: 0 in the Bnei Yehuda derby. To sink to the bottom and remain in last place in the table after 11 consecutive games without a win, but broke a streak of three losses in the renewed debut of Yossi Aboksis on the lines.
Coach Hapoel Tel Aviv, Nir Klinger, Commented at the end and said: “We knew we would meet this football and we would have to be more focused and decisive, but okay, everyone takes their own way to play and there is not too much to take from this game. We lost two points, Bnei Yehuda played only defense and that’s fine, we had to be sharper and more accurate, we can not come up with complaints to anyone. We controlled the game, but we had to do better. ”
Ability: “We play well, offensively and play better, it looks better, but I can not say that I am satisfied with our decisions in the offensive part, otherwise we would have won 0: 3. We hope that next time we will also be able to score. “
The improvement in capacity since the dismissal of Moshe Sinai: “First of all, regarding Moshe Sinai I can never be happy about such a thing, Moshe as a brother to me and our cooperation was known, but since then the situation has changed at the club and there are more options. We are still at the bottom and losing points here and there, but I am sure that if we manage to add the last action as well, I believe we will win more and also run away from the bottom. “
Yossi Aboksis Responding to Klinger: “Nir is currently coaching Hapoel Tel Aviv and not Barcelona or Real Madrid, so with how much I appreciate him, Nir will deal with his team and not our team, I actually complimented their team, but in this section I think every team should know To play in a situation and that’s how we had to play to get out of the game with a point. “
On the game itself, Aboksis said: “Feelings are a bit strange because it is difficult to join a team in the middle of the season, it is not the same as at the beginning of the season because there is a snowball and insecurity of players. But it’s always fun, I love Bnei Yehuda and we need to help the team get out of where it got into. “
Status of the team at the bottom: “Teams win at the bottom so we might have had to get a little more, but have to say we didn’t deserve it. After what happened and all the trauma in the last 11 games we had to stop it a bit. Hapoel Tel Aviv is a good team, probably better than us today, with all the changes they have made they are an outstanding team. We knew that at least a point to stop the sequence and give confidence to the players, although we did not deserve more, but if we were a little smarter with a few explosive attacks we could have won the game, but that is, keep moving forward. ”
Survival struggles: We will try to do our best to be better, the fighting game of the players gives room for optimism, of course we need to bring a lot more quality to win games, but we were very determined and disciplined and I think Hapoel Tel Aviv with all their control did not get into situations. It gives me faith, but to stay in the league we will have to be much better offensively, much smarter in the passing game and holding the ball, we will have to improve on that and we will work on that for the rest of the season. “
Dan Einbinder He added: “I think that in this process and in this journey every point is important and this time too, even though we did not win, we take this point and know that it will help us along the way. “We have positive momentum after six games without a loss, we kept a clean sheet and I think the way Bnei Yehuda played complimented us, they gave us the respect for the good ability and made it difficult for us, we could not find the solutions, but I am sure we will find the good solutions later.”
Ability: “We should have played faster, done more one-on-one on the sides with our decisive players and maybe dared a little more, but in the end we knew Bnei Yehuda would come and try to shut up and sting us with outbursts. I think we did it well, so we have to look at the things we did well. And also on what needs to be improved because we have not done well enough. Happy birthday? May we continue to see positive football and a lot of expatriates, not like this time, Hapoel Tel Aviv despite this game that things went less well tried to attack and play and create situations. “Despite our situation in the table, we know that we will succeed in this journey only by good football, as it was in the last rounds and as it will be in the following rounds, I am sure of that.”
Dan Murray He also commented: “We are aware of the way we played, but in the situation where we are in last place in the table, we first wanted to show a fighting spirit, to show that there is a group here that does not give up and stands firm in front of everyone. Hapoel Tel Aviv has become very strong and they have seen in the last few games that they have created a lot of situations, I think that in this approach and in this commitment, we need to improve the level, but this is the attitude that we need to play. ”
The influence of Yossi Aboksis: “Yossi stabilized us defensively, we conceded too many goals, we saw Yossi’s part that we need to stop being good kids and a little more ‘Bad Boys’, I think this way we will get on the king’s road. Offensive players sacrificed a lot for the defense, we put Hapoel Tel Aviv on zero valley situations, so I think with the confidence that this point and the clean net will give us, we are rebuilding ourselves. “Now we have 14 cup finals and we want to show the Bnei Yehuda crowd that he has someone to rely on. We have shamed this club in the way we have played recently and I think in this approach as we presented this time, the Bnei Yehuda crowd is happier.”
