Hapoel Jerusalem took off today (Monday) for Bosnia ahead of the pair of games against Iguoca in the Champions League. As you may recall, the Reds gave up the home game against Iguoca in exchange for postponing the games and the Bosnian participation in financing a private flight directly to the city on the ship Lucca.
Oded Katash’s assistant coach, Yonatan Alon, said that despite the shoulder problems, Jacoben Brown is supposed to play both games: “Everything that is happening with Jacoben at the moment are things we watched and knew would happen. “His subject day after day depends on how he feels and together with our medical staff who do a great job. We will get to the game, we will receive the instructions from the doctors alongside his feeling, but at the moment it is according to expectations.”
On the addition of Jamil Wilson to the squad, Alon said: “We are very happy, he gives us a dimension we have not had until now, along with the personality and great attitude he came with. And of course he’s in good shape, which is significant because he can get into things right away, probably in the upcoming games. These are two very important games, we come very prepared and the feelings are good. We’re coming to win. ‘
