Maccabi Tel Aviv will take on Maccabi Petach Tikva on Matchday 22 of the Ligat Ha’Al at the Moshava Stadium in Petach Tikva on Monday night at 21:00. Following the 1:0 State Cup win, Eli Dasa looked ahead to the their next encounter: “I didn’t have a great start to the season but as the team began doing well, it was easier for me to succeed as well. Our confidence returned and we’ve been successful in collecting points over the last few matches, so things are looking up.”
Playing on the wings:
“I’m a defender and not an attacking type of player. We have enough offensive players but I am happy to help out on the attack over the last couple of games and assist on a pair of goals. I hope that this can continue, but my main priority is on the defensive end of things.”
His defense on Tony Nwakaeme of Hapoel Beer Sheva:
“Tony is one of the most dangerous offensive players in the league. We were very careful defensively for this match and Dor Micha along with the central defenders helped me out. You can criticize my efforts, but I listen to the professional staff and they are the ones who comment on my play.”
Arrival of the new coach:
“Jordi isn’t going anywhere and the new coach will bring new ideas. We’re not in kindergarten here. We’ll make the necessary adjustments to the demands of the new coach.”
