Maccabi Tel Aviv midfielder Eyal Golasa scored the winner in last night’s crucial Matchday Three Europa League contest in Holland and helped the Yellow & Blue to 3 very valuable points in the competition. Number 23 spoke about the win, the upcoming contests and the importance of picking up the three points:
“The match was very important to us because the group is very close and I’m happy that we won. Now it’s time to look ahead to Monday’s very difficult game and we’re focussed on that.”
Feelings after Alkmaar drew even:
“We had been controlling the tempo and the ball. It’s true they may have had momentum after they had scored but we had chances and I’m happy we ended up winning the game.”
Thoughts when he got the ball from Dasa to score:
“I was alone so I said to myself that I’d kick it at the goal.”
More on the win and looking ahead:
“The group is really close and we did the job at a tough stadium against a very organized team. What’s most important is that we won and that we now can really concentrate on Monday’s match. Maccabi Haifa is a very tough team. We have a number of games in a row now and we have to get onto a good streak.”
Winger Tal Ben Chaim on Golasa’s goal:
“WOW!”
