Maccabi Tel Aviv players celebrate with Tal Ben Haim (Radad Jabara)
Maccabi Tel Aviv is back in a huge fight for the championship. Patrick Van Leven’s Yellows recorded a dramatic 1: 2 in Bloomfield tonight (Wednesday) over Maccabi Haifa and narrowed the gap from it to only five points with an important goal in a penalty in extra time.
Tal Ben Haim He said at the end: “If to admit the truth there was an equal game between two good teams, it would have looked like it was going to a draw. I do not think he came to Haifa and us forever. “When there are games that we are less dominant we can say that they did not reach a state of 100% goal, and their goal was in my opinion with a foul on Phiben.”
Praise you early: “Yes, we were eulogized, everywhere I heard that Haifa is a favorite with us at home. It gave us a drive and I’m happy, it’s 3 points that God forbid could have been 11 in the championship fight. It’s 11 that turned into 5 ”.
Maccabi Tel Aviv can win a championship: “Unequivocally, if there is anyone on the staff who does not believe it will not be here.”
the gate: “This is the kind of game that if you do not return to the game quickly you can get confused and bring the game to a situation that is difficult to return from, as soon as we scored a quick goal we balanced the game and canceled their goal. It seemed like it was going to be a draw, but I’m glad he’s predicting that he hasn’t played for a long time.
The difference between the coaches: The essential difference for me is simplicity, Maccabi Tel Aviv plays a certain method with certain players. I am the last to come out in the media about the former coach who was fired, or will come out on top of him directly. The answer to the question is the simplicity that Patrick Van Leven brought, that is what has brought about the change in recent times. “
