Wow, wow and again wow. Because it can’t be more dramatic than that. And above all because it cannot be justified. In six Champions League qualifiers, Maccabi won three, ended two in a draw and lost one, meaningless. In these six games, Maccabi scored 14 goals, including two fours and one three. In these six games, she proved her place in the group stage of the Champions League.
Beyond the (very) high level of football, the European physical abilities and the tremendous physical fitness, coach Barak Becher managed to change the DNA of the club, which until now has not excelled to say the least in the moments of truth, in knockout games. From now on they said: Maccabi appears on Money Time.
And this is Becher’s legacy – we don’t lose our heads when we’re behind, we don’t break down, we don’t forget the way after we score a goal, we go crazy for the second half, we play until the last second and we score goals in the minutes that until now we were actually the ones to score. Some people call it mentality, I’m actually a big believer in a slightly more popular term – eggs. And Barak Becher has two huge eggs. He doesn’t stress, doesn’t panic, always positive, always proactive. He looked with the whites of his eyes at the coaches in front of him, especially Pedro Martins from Olympiakos and Valdian Stankovic from Red Star Belgrade – two teams with much higher budgets than Maccabi’s – and didn’t blink for a moment. On the contrary, he made them blink.
And now he has to prove – mainly to himself because we already know – that his place is on the biggest stage in the world. UCL – Here He Comes.
