“If the game was in Teddy, a volcano would erupt”

Tonight on Israel’s sports program we hosted Michelle Dayan ahead of Hapoel Tel Aviv’s match against Beitar Jerusalem.

Can you relate to Itzhaki’s sentence which is his most important sentence?

“I think this is Beitar’s most important game in quite a few years and not only because it’s against Hapoel, I have no doubt that Ashdod will beat Hapoel PT, and then all the teams can see themselves in the fight for survival. This is a very important game. Beitar can finish the season, they are a better team.”

On the other hand, she can start preparations for the national.

“I agree, I think that the worker is not good and seems helpless, she has no solutions, what is more disturbing is that Yossi Aboksis, who in my opinion is an excellent coach, you see his body language in press conferences, it seems as if there are no solutions.”

You live in Jerusalem, how are the emotions before a game between Aboxis and Abramov?

“If the match had been played in Teddy, it would not have been a volcano. At the sporting level, there is very bad blood between them, they were very hurt, and if Beitar comes mentally and professionally to neutralize the background noise and prepare the team as he knows how to prepare with good, pressing football, I will not I see that there is someone in Hapoel who can take the team at the moment. Even Zobas, who may be the reason why the work has not been relegated yet, we see signs of breaking in him.”

Yossi Aboksis who knows Betar, does this have any meaning?

“No. It’s a different style of play. Yossi played differently and I think he made a mistake. If Yossi Abuksi did not leave the fixed five defense players, and it comes in its own way, Hapoel does not look good and you need to understand why. If Hapoel Tel Aviv is in the center of the field, Ganaim and Einbinder have to lead, there is a problem here.”

Do you think Aboxis regrets leaving Beitar?

“He won’t say, but I have no doubt. His team looks mentally broken. When he entered the club and understood the deep problems of Hapoel, it is not that he helped solve it. I know him, he is dynamic on the line, and now he looks as if he was thrown into the situation and you can see it in his body language, it doesn’t look good, he radiates desperation, it’s a shame and you can see that he is suffering. In Beitar Jerusalem they will think how to come and take revenge, this can come in their hands. Two weeks ago she won and then lost to her room, you have to remember that if Ashdod wins, she overtakes Hapoel Tel Aviv and then all the teams are in danger.”

The Beitar crowd wanted more tickets, how much do you think there could be a mess around that?

“It is clear that Hapoel’s interest is as little as Beitar’s audience, we also know what the purpose of the audience’s arrival is. I think there is nothing to be done, the law says they have to get ten percent, I don’t see Hapoel spending more even if it comes at the expense of a lot of money. This is the game of her life.”

“Beitar is a better team, if it comes calm and ready, it will be better, it is in the momentum of animals and hungry to succeed, which is exactly the opposite on the other side.”

How influential is the story of the sale of Hapoel?

“I was on the grass, the players right now don’t care who what and why, they have to come with mental work, maybe Tuama can do work there, if Yossi can help him he will help him. I can’t find anyone on the playing field who can take this weight on his shoulders, there are many young and foreign players who are not that interested.”

How will the game end?

“I think the points will go to Beitar’s side because it is better. Beitar’s momentum is better, since Barak and Almog arrived there is a good vibe, the team is going to the right place, Micah’s generation is reborn, no coach would play with Shua Yona and Micah together.”

“Without Wade Baldwin, Maccabi Tel Aviv’s chances decrease”

Tonight on Israel’s sports program we hosted Meir Tapiro who spoke about Maccabi Tel Aviv.

We’ll discuss all the things later, but how do you rate things tonight? When it should be mentioned that Maccabi is without its biggest big star, Wade Baldwin. A bit of a strange message that they issued.

“Without Baldwin it will be very, very difficult for them in this series, we know how much power he attracts and how many players he attracts, we saw at the beginning of the game that he brought in Jake Cohen, he attracts a lot of attention from the defense, someone will have to step up and step into his shoes, when he is not playing So Maccabi’s chances go down.”

We already saw in the decisive minutes that Maccabi won in the end without him.

“Even if there was a game, the chances are that Pau would have won today, Maccabi did its part by taking the home team. Even if there was and even more so if he doesn’t play, then they will put a lot of pressure on the guards, unless someone steps up and gives a heroic game, I don’t see it happening without Baldwin, but Pau’s behavior will maybe put her players under pressure. The odds are not in Maccabi’s favor today.”

The pressure here on Pau is great, because Maccabi has already done its part, it was a surprise, so whatever happens today is a bonus. To what extent will Ketch’s experience in these moments be reflected? Or he actually did his own thing and it’s up to the players. How much does it affect?

“He has an impact, even in the previous game you saw that his entire squad and everyone was fresh. Today is to try and create some other place to hit the Greeks, because Baldwin is not found and Maccabi will lack his ability to finish from half distance and one on one, so we have to hit somewhere else.”

What would you hurt them with?

“I would try to go with all my might to draw fouls, and also what happened in the first game, go after Lucas and draw him out with fouls, and even if the two key players are fouled then it will be difficult for Pau to manage the game.”

In your opinion, of course you want a second victory, but what does that mean? 1:1 or 0:2?

“I think 1:1 tonight”.
