While in solitary confinement, Betar Jerusalem stopper Tal Ben Haim participated in the trend of world athletes and used the isolation period to answer the questions of his followers on Instagram, including referring to Maccabi Tel Aviv, Cristiano Ronaldo, and John Terry.
The 38-year-old stopper recorded a glorious career that included 96 appearances for the Israeli national team and 11 years in Europe, including terms at Chelsea, Manchester City and West Ham. Ben Haim was asked if when he returned to Israel and Maccabi Tel Aviv the goal was to end his career in yellow, and replied: “Yes, it did not work. More details in the book.”
He was also asked who the best player was who played against him: “There have been a lot of great players throughout his career including Leo Messi, but for me Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest because of his passion and work ethic.”
And who is the greatest who played with him: “John Terry the Legend.” The brakeman was asked if he would retire at Betar Jerusalem and answered with an emoji with his arms outstretched to the sides as a “don’t know” season.
Ben-Haim referred to his medical condition as corona blue: “There are small symptoms, it is important to follow the guidelines of the Ministry of Health.”
