Hapoel Beer Sheva continues to make its mark this season and closed at the end of the last round a streak of six consecutive victories in the Premier League. Roni Levy’s team is at the top of the table, when even the great ability of the champion Maccabi Haifa does not cause it (at least for now) to take the pedal off the gas when it comes to scoring points. On the Portuguese website Abola, tonight (Friday) they interviewed captain and veteran stopper Miguel Vitor, who has won all three of the team’s last games from the Negev capital.
Vitor was first asked about his recent goal-scoring ability: “It’s a great feeling. It’s always good to help your team win with the goals you score. Even as a stopper, I get to score for my team on quite a few occasions, but this streak of three games in a row “I think I haven’t had one like this for more than a year and a half. I think it’s a lot thanks to our successful exercises in the stationary situations, at the end of which I find myself free to punch in or score the rebound that was repulsed.”
Regarding Hapoel Beer Sheva’s situation: “We had an excellent first round, and we still haven’t lost. I believe we will fight for the championship until the end, and that we will win in the end. We have three very important games (Sakhnin, Maccabi Haifa and Maccabi Tel Aviv) and we will see how we play “Goddess as a team. I come back, we are in good shape and in a good time, things are going well for us and I believe we will be happy at the end of the season.”
In addition, Vitor was asked about his contract with Hapoel Beer Sheva, which is due to expire in June of next year. To this the brake replied simply: “I am interested in staying here.”
