Roi Mishfati, grade: 8
Took countless highballs and helped Maccabi Tel Aviv win
Abdulai Sak, score: 3
The Maccabi Haifa stopper would rather forget the game, he made all the possible mistakes
Maccabi Tel Aviv touches the championship. In Kiryat Shalom, they can already begin to prepare the celebrations for the return of the title after three years in which it went to Carmel after Robbie Keen’s team recorded a small-giant 0:1 against Maccabi Haifa this evening (Saturday) in Sami Ofer, who increased the gap from the Greens in second place to eight points, this with remaining Only three more cycles until the end of the season.
Three points are three points, no matter how the winning team took them. With this mantra, Maccabi Tel Aviv came to Sami Ofer. She wanted to win at any cost, she wanted to increase the gap and put a stamp on a season of ups and downs, and she did it. Some will say it was defensive football and some will say efficient, but the bottom line is three points that widen the gap.
Robbie Keane went to Sami Ofer with a huge load on his back. The 1:1 against Bnei Sakhnin in the last round determined that Maccabi Haifa won this season’s game and the gap drops to only two points, all while one of its best players this season, and some would say the best, Milson, is not in the squad due to the red card he received in the last round and Yoris Van Overeem is out of the squad.
The Irish coach was up to the task. He placed the players that were available to him in the right way, reacted to the game as he should and came out with a victory that would bring him the championship in his first season on the lines of any team. Maccabi Tel Aviv was looking for a seal for this season, a victory that the incoming champion would say here, and she got it in her last chance and on the opponent’s field for the title.
The opening was completely green. The crowd at Sami Ofer pushed their players forward and Maccabi Haifa came away with many opportunities in the first 25 minutes. But then came the turning point. Eran Zahavi squeezed a foul from Abdulai Sek inside the box, went to the penalty and gave the yellows a 0:1 lead in the 27th minute against the course of the game. The goal seemed to hurt the spirit of the greens, who failed to be dangerous in the next 15 minutes, when Zahavi was close to scoring his second in a yellow burst attack.
At the start of the second half, Sami Ofer was already in the clouds, when Dean David scored a great goal from the air with his heel, but the VAR disallowed the goal with a justified claim to the difference. Seven minutes passed and once again the screen judges changed Reinschreiber’s decision and this time too it was in favor of Maccabi Tel Aviv. Roy Rabivo was fouled in the box and the referee pointed to the penalty spot after the intervention of the VAR. This time Eran Zahavi kicked badly and Sharif Kiof managed to repel.
Although they needed two more goals, Maccabi Haifa was not able to come up with many threats, while Maccabi Tel Aviv liked that the game was played at ease and the championship is starting to wander towards Bloomfield. A ball that hit the crossbar after a strike by Gadi Kinda in the 90th minute, set the seal for a 0:1 yellow victory.
The three points increased the gap at the top to eight points, with three games remaining until the end of the season. The Yellows will host Hapoel Be’er Sheva in the next round and will be able to celebrate a championship in Bloomfield. The Greens, on the other hand, can be proud that they returned to the fight again when no one gave them a chance, but are disappointed that they already started better, when a victory would have reduced the difference to only two.
