Hapoel Beer Sheva looks to build on recent victory as they face Maccabi Tel Aviv
After a rough start to the Premier League season, Hapoel Beer Sheva secured a much-needed win against Maccabi Petah Tikva last Saturday. The team, led by coach Eliniv Barda, will now face an even tougher opponent as they take on undefeated leader, Maccabi Tel Aviv, in a home game at the Turner Stadium.
Barda emphasized the importance of continuity for the team, stating, “We are not out of the crisis yet, we only won one game and we need to maintain continuity – that is our key word in the coming period.” He acknowledged the strength of Maccabi Tel Aviv as an excellent team but expressed confidence in his own team’s ability to perform at home.
The coach also addressed the team’s recent performance and the need to maintain focus throughout the game. “It’s behind us and we learned not to leave a game at any stage – the last game is the proof, because we conceded a goal early on and still fought back to secure the win,” Barda said.
Additionally, Barda praised goalkeeper Niv Eliasi for his hard work and dedication, asserting that he has the qualities needed to excel in such a challenging role.
With the return of fans to the stadium, there is renewed anticipation for the upcoming game. Midfielder Shay Elias expressed the team’s determination to bounce back from recent setbacks, saying, “We have a lot of games that didn’t go our way…Obviously there was a problem here because we didn’t win three games in a row and that’s something that can’t happen, now we face forward to the next game.”
As the team prepares to face Maccabi Tel Aviv, they are eager to capitalize on the home advantage and give their fans a reason to cheer. With a strong performance, Hapoel Beer Sheva aims to turn their recent victory into a winning streak as they strive to make their mark in the Premier League.
