Maccabi Tel Aviv started the new year in a disappointing way in Serbia. The Israeli champions were defeated tonight (Thursday) 2:0 by the Danish Mityolan and still remain without points in the European League. Already on Sunday, the Yellows will return to the local arena for an away game against Maccabi Netanya and try to recover.

Even before Jerko Laztic’s words, an ugly incident occurred at the end of the match when the Turkish player of the Danish team, Earl Shimshir, called out to the Maccabi players to “free Palestine”. The Serbian coach was asked about this in the final interview, but preferred not to comment on the incident. In addition, the Maccabi players stated that the same Misher provoked and shouted several similar things at them during the game as well.

Laztic He said at the end: “Preparation has not been ideal in the last few days and I congratulate the players, they did their best. I am satisfied with the performance tonight, I told them and I also congratulate the opponent who knew how to take advantage of our mistakes. We tried to do a lot of good things, the goal is of course to score, but this time we couldn’t do it and that’s our problem at the moment. Everyone who played played well, we deserved much more than 0 points, but I don’t believe in luck. We deserve more, we will continue to work hard and we will achieve more.”

Stav Lemkin He said: “There are good things to take away, ready for the next game. I missed too, we got into a lot of situations. It could have gone in a different direction, we proved that we can compete against teams at these levels. Happy with debut, disappointed it came with a loss. I feel good in the team, and that the coach trusts me. We take good points from this game, we did things we wanted to do, but in the end the goal is to win and we hope the ball goes in.”
