The Under-19 team lost its second game in a row in the Winner Youth League falling to Hapoel Haifa away 2:0. Maccabi “Shachar” couldn’t find a way to get back on the winning track as they gave up an early goal in the 17th minute to Saar Fadida.
Coach Ziv Arie was forced to play a make shift lineup due to many players having been called up to play for the first team in the Toto Cup match against Bnei Yehuda this past Wednesday evening. The young Yellow-and-Blue substituted in Or Dasa, Amit Shapira and Mahmoud Alawesat but were unable to find the equalizer giving up a 90th minute goal to Holy Abdala who put the ball past ‘keeper Haviv Ohayon.
Tomorrow, the club will begin preparations for Wednesday when they’ll meet Porto on Matchday Four of the Champions League Youth League. When the teams met two weeks ago Maccabi “Shachar” played well but lost in Portugal 2:0. The location and time of the match will be available in the coming days.
