This coming Tuesday, Maccabi Haifa will begin its journey in the Champions League. The first team that Barak Becher’s apprentices will meet is Benfica, who will host the game against the Greens in the capital of Portugal.
Tonight (Tuesday) the Eagles from Lisbon beat Pasos Ferreira 2:3 and completed their fourth victory out of four rounds in the league, in what was also their 14th victory in a row in all settings (including preparatory games). In fact, the last loss of Haifa’s opponent was somewhere in early May, when they surrendered 1:0 to Porto.
Those who scored for the Reds were David Ners who did it in the 42nd minute, Joao Mario who was accurate from the penalty spot in the overtime of the first half and striker Gonzalo Ramos who was honored with the third goal in the 56th minute. Even before the meeting against the Greens in the Champions, the Eagles will host Vizla on Friday in the fifth round of the local league.
