When Maccabi Haifa prepared for the game of the season against Maccabi Tel Aviv, it imagined a victory that would give it a significant push in the championship race. And when a season game opened, it did look like that. But the minutes passed, the Yellows tipped the scales in their favor and one moment of inattention revived The championship fight. A moment later, Eyal Berkovich and the “Night Studio” panel analyzed the fascinating battle. Here is what “Magician” had to say>
“Maccabi Tel Aviv knew in advance that Maccabi Haifa was a favorite,” he analyzed Berkowitz. “She came ready, but played for moments in the first half like a bottom team. Slowly Maccabi Tel Aviv gained the confidence, in the second half it was already more in control and in the end won. “Maccabi Haifa is still in first place and it is still a better team, but now it faces its biggest challenge, how did it arise from such a game.”
“You can not win the championship when Rokavica is not good, she does not have a replacement striker on the bench,” Barko added. “Barak Bachar does not trust Donio, so she must add a striker as early as January. Rokavica in the last month is not good, and this requires the strengthening of another striker. Maccabi Haifa sees that Rokavica is less good in the last month and can not have such a club no replacement, or at least another striker to place Next to him. “
Barko went on to go into great detail: “Maccabi Haifa did not exist in the second half. Barak Bachar’s big mistake is the release of Abu Fani, he had to replace Charon Sheri who was not in the game. Maccabi Tel Aviv won the championship last season because of its defense “I hear that Maccabi Haifa has a good defense, but every time it stands the test – it collapses.”
As for the “hero” of the loss, Berkowitz said: “Planich was not allowed to make such a mistake. Planich has a regular habit – in every game he makes two goal mistakes. This time it cost Maccabi Haifa dearly. Barak Bachar understood that Maccabi Haifa had a hard time, he He made changes, but he did not succeed. “
“I think Maccabi Tel Aviv had a lot of problems, the number of car players left it at the start of the season,” Berkowitz concluded. “I do not know how much Mitch Goldhaar wants to open his wallet again, and despite all the problems of Maccabi Tel Aviv – Maccabi Haifa. Did in pants’ in the game of the season, and that testifies to the power of Maccabi Tel Aviv.
