After six consecutive victories that completed a streak of 14 games without a loss in all competitions, Maccabi Tel Aviv surrendered tonight (Thursday) 2: 0 to Shakhtar Donetsk at Bloomfield Stadium as part of the first game in the last 32 stage of the Europa League.

Maccabi Tel Aviv coach, Patrick Van Leven, Referring to the loss at the end and saying: “We knew it was going to be a tough game and we tried to stay as organized as possible and not absorb so as to prove something to ourselves. If we were more focused on offense we could have achieved something, then we lost some concentration and absorbed. I feel that with the situations we got to, there were situations that could have led to something else and done more, but we also had to keep them away from the other gate and it was difficult ”.

Ability and reciprocity: “It is impossible to give up a game, so of course we will try to come and give a good game in return, we will work and prepare for it. I have friends from the past in Shakhtar and it is always a pleasure, not only to play with them, but also against them. The game against Hapoel Beer Sheva in the cup? We still have a lot of important things beyond the Europa League and we will prepare and arrive ready, I believe we will do the job. “
