Tal Ben Haim, Maccabi Tel Aviv’s stalwart central defender spoke about tonight’s contest versus Beitar Jerusalem in the nation’s capital. Number 26 discussed the table, the atmosphere and of course the match ahead:
“It’s not an easy match against a very good club and we are playing away. They also have a very good home crowd so it won’t be easy. But will do the best we can and if we play how we expect to play then we will return home with the points.”
Better atmosphere surrounding the club after defeating Ashdod:
“Of course when we win the atmosphere around the team is much better and we certainly did play well. But we also want to continue and get a good run going.”
Looking ahead:
“We aren’t really concentrating on Beer Sheva and we have to look at ourselves and play better. But once we begin to put together some wins the table will look a bit differently. We have to take it match by match and not look too much further down the road.”
