Maccabi Haifa and Hapoel Haifa in the ugly confrontation (Omri Stein)
Barak Bachar and Maccabi Haifa tonight (Wednesday) celebrated a precious victory with 0: 2 over Hapoel Haifa in the derby, but in the end, like everyone else, they had to deal with the consequences of the mass brawl that developed immediately after its final whistle, the game against Sami Ofer.
“I do not know why it happened, it should not have happened. An earlier derby they defied and we conducted ourselves properly. Do not want to comment too much because I have not seen everything. We will wait and see what will be in the report and we will make the considerations, it is not in my control, “he said Barak Bachar At the end.
Regarding the game, the green coach said: “We were very weak in the first half but in the second half we improved, we went forward and also scored, I liked the character the players showed.”
The pressure in the championship fight: “There is always pressure, this is the profession and if we do not know how to deal with it, we are not in the right profession. “All the games that await us are difficult and we have to deal with the pressure as we faced today.”
The captain Neta Lavie He added: “I do not know what happened in the end, I tried to separate but most importantly we won and Haifa is green. I have not seen and will not talk about any player of the opponent. They came and fought and started the beatings, we face forward to Teddy. It’s unpleasant and certainly does not need these pictures in our football, but it is impossible to turn the wheel back. I’m not a judge, they teased last time they started the beatings. They need to come lining up for themselves and that’s all. They teased at the end of the previous game and they decided to fight a beating. Beating is never good. “
Meanwhile, Maccabi Haifa stopper, Eid Habashi, is very unlucky. After a long period of sitting on the bench, the player who started in the squad was injured in a collision with William Agada, and as a result was replaced, with the fear at the club that he is suffering from a crisis in his hand. Abyssinian will undergo a photo shoot tomorrow and may have to go on strike in the near future, if the fear materializes. In such a situation, Haifa can find itself in a difficult situation, since the fourth stopper, Rami Gershon, is on the verge of signing for Bnei Yehuda Tel Aviv, as first published in ONE.
Maccabi Haifa are supposed to recalculate a route regarding Gershon, or alternatively look for another brake, when the return of David Aqua’s loan from Hapoel Nof Hagalil may also be considered. Habashi joins defender Raz Meir, who was also injured in the game and was replaced, and Chiron Sheri and Nikita Rokavica, who were not included in the squad.
