The Yellow-and-Blue right back, Eli Dasa is focussing on the upcoming WINNER League Matchday 25 clash away at Bloomfield Stadium against Bnei Yehuda on Saturday night, 19:30. Number 2 spoke about his importance to the club, playing against defensive minded teams and about the upcoming match:

“We know that Bnei Yehuda is a good team that plays well and has players that can cause us plenty of problems. It’s a very important match for us and we need to take maximum points.”

Last  match against Bnei Yehuda was a home 4:0 win at the Netanya Stadium:

 “We don’t know if it will be similar to last match but we will come prepared exactly the same way as we did last game and I believe that we’ll win the game.”

 The importance of the right back’s role in the upcoming contest:

 “It’s not easy for our whole squad to face a team that plays a defensive type of game, especially against us. As a right back I have a very important role and when the other side closes off the middle of the pitch we have to find a way to help out the attack.”

Playing teams that concentrate on a defensive style game:

“As each year goes by, the teams are learning how to do it better and better. It’s turning into a system that the different coaches practice all week and it’s a certain style of play that they use just against Maccabi. It makes it much more difficult for us to play, but we have to keep working hard and collecting points. We lost a few along the way and it’s natural to lose some over the course of the year, but we have to keep focussing on ourselves.”

There are two matches left  against  Hapoel Beer Sheva:

“Yes there is no question. There’s 6-points left against Hapoel Beer Sheva and we have to win both matches.”
