The pressure that accompanied Hapoel Tel Aviv yesterday (Friday), when Maccabi Jaffa took a 0:1 lead, was at its peak. Or as they described in the club: “At moments like this you start thinking about the consequences of a loss, you see black.” Masai Dego didn’t understand how a game in total control gets lost, turned to the bench and said: “I can’t understand, I can’t.”
And this is not new for the Reds, who also controlled ten players after the irresponsible dismissal of Ahmed Abed. Dego told his players at halftime: “Play the same, don’t let them get into the game, we will continue as if we are with 11 players, we are better.”
In the end it worked, with teeth. Ran Binyamin is a player with ups and downs, but when he’s at his best, it’s magic. Yaakov Barihon got involved in Hapoel Tel Aviv, Roy Korin continues to be one of the significant players and even Goni Naor started to mention why Dego fought for him.
Yesterday it was in the cup, but even in the league life for the Reds will continue to be difficult and they will have to continue learning to win quite a few games by the teeth, maybe as early as next Friday in Afula. Regarding the purchase in January, Dago wants to add a striker and a midfielder, but the decisions will be made before the opening of the window according to the options in the market.
