The sequence of Hapoel Tel Aviv’s four victories with Kobi Refuah was stopped today (Saturday) but the Reds are the ones who celebrated in the end after coming back from a 2: 0 deficit to 2: 2 against Hapoel Nof Hagalil thanks to a tie by Yoav Tomer in the 98th minute. The visitors broke a streak of six losses, but missed an opportunity to rise above the red line.
The dramatic game was overshadowed by the behavior of Hapoel Tel Aviv fans, who did not like Stefan Marinovich’s waste of time and threw objects at the past, including a napkin dispenser. One spark also hit a goalkeeper who for a few minutes handed the belongings to referee Shlomi Ben Avraham. This matter will lead to the prosecution of the Reds, against whom a conditional sentence of closing the stand is already standing.
Kobe Medicine, Hapoel Tel Aviv coach: “We did not appear at all for today’s game, it’s not like anything. We were not smart, the opponent wanted more than us. Except for the point, I do not take anything from this game. Yoav Tomer And this time it might be someone else. We did everything possible up front. Not a good game, we did not play smart. I do not have much to say, can only regret to our fans for this game and move on. We managed to come back from 2-0, but we did not want enough. It’s a natural thing for a bottom group to lie down and waste time, we also did that when we were at the bottom. I have no complaints about the Galilee landscape. We will have to get better. “
Yoav Tomer, Who saved a point for Hapoel Tel Aviv: “It’s an important goal. We came to win to continue in a row, but at least we managed to come back from 2-0 and I’m glad I was able to help. I’m never disappointed, I’m a football player and that’s part of the profession. “Substitute. I do everything on the pitch when I get a chance. This is an equal league, there is no less good or better team, they came to fight.”
Shai Barda, Hapoel Nof Hagalil coach: “We will deal with that too. I am 10 days in the team and probably need to know how to deal with it. I am proud of the players, this is the first point after a long time. The 0: 2 was in my pocket, but we had to do the third and fourth. We did not win, but we will improve and learn from it. We will only play offensive and open football, everything will come. I coached a big team and I know what a waste of time. I am not talking about judgment and things around. I am here 10 days, you can understand there was insecurity. We changed things and method And we will do everything to make people proud of Hapoel Nof Hagalil. We drew and did not win, but we did stop the losing streak. Until the red we were much more dangerous, we pressed the whole field. “Do everything to make people proud of this team. Hapoel Nof Hagalil will stay in the league with another football.”
Autumn Nachmani, Who conquered the other of the Galilee landscape: “I’m disappointed we did not win, we were better than them and it’s a shame. The extra time was not justified, there was no need to add eight minutes. We had a great training week and you could see it.”
