Chico Ofoedu, Maccabi Tel Aviv’s striker who scored a brace in the 4:0 win over Hapoel Hadera looked back at the win, adapting to his new team and fighting for a place on the pitch:
“Maccabi is a big club and the players are top players so everyone fights for a position and perform on the field of play. I’m happy that I was given the opportunity to fight for the team and not just for myself but for the team.”
Adapting to Maccabi and Israel:
“I’ve learnt quite a lot about the team, the players and the coach as well as the language which is important especially when you are in a new environment and country where you don’t understand. You have to adapt to the people around you and I’m adapting as I am getting used to the food, language and lifestyle which is quite different”
