Haris Medunjanin, Maccabi’s veteran midfielder spoke about the Club’s upcoming match against Hapoel Kfar Saba this Saturday at Levita Stadium, 16:00. Number 4 talked about scoring, his status with the team going into January and battling for the league title:
“We will fight until the end, but we know that ten points is quite a lot especially since they (Beer Sheva) are playing so well. We still believe in our team and we will fight until the end and see where we are at.”
Recovering from the amount of matches over the last few months:
“I feel better and I have been having some rest now as I didn’t play from the start. Micha played well in the same position and I hope a lot of players will stand up and play well. We now are starting the second round and we will do the best we can.”
Offensive football:
“We want to play attacking football but everything comes down to results. The coach can explain the tactics.”
Opening his contract in January:
“I am not even thinking about it. Right now I am focusing on Maccabi and I’m here to win a championship and do the best for the team. I came back to be a champion and play attacking football, that’s why I came back.”
Scoring:
“I haven’t scored in a long time, I think the last time was against Zenit. It’s not just about scoring but helping the team and collect points. That’s the most important thing.”
Changes in the squad:
“Especially when we are ten points behind anyone can go. We are all professionals and everyone knows we are in a bad situation but it’s also good for the players that they are insecure so they can be sharp and they may think it’s their last game. Bringing in new players will also help the competition and we all must give more than 100% during training.”
About the owner not being in Israel in awhile:
“I haven’t seen him in a long time but he has his own things that he is busy with and he speaks to the coaches and Jordi about the club.”
