The rivalry between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Maccabi Haifa did not end last night (Saturday) at the end of the 90 minutes. At the end of the Greens’ 0:2, a verbal confrontation developed between the members of the two clubs.
The reason: Maccabi Haifa refused to allow players who were not part of the ranks of Maccabi Tel Aviv last night to perform a short training session at the Sami Ofer Stadium. In response, the Yellow Club announced that if until now Bloomfield served the Maccabi Haifa players who did not receive minutes for training purposes, now due to the behavior of the Greens they too will not be able to train at Bloomfield.
At the same time, as part of the conclusions reached by the professional team in preparation for the Tel Aviv derby that will take place next Monday, Oskar Gluch will return to the team, as well as Djorja Jovanovic. Yonatan Cohen increased the pace of training and will be included for the first time in the squad for the next game. Maccabi Tel Aviv explained that Nir Bitton was not included in the 18th because he did not practice all the training sessions last week and he will also return to the squad and may try to be part of the derby. The sick Dan Bitton was not present yesterday and will gradually return to training.
