Rikan: “There is no secret that we always want to win titles, this season we didn’t do it. We always aspire for more” Avi Rikan said. “It is nice to end with a victory in the derby, it is good for the club and the fans, but one can’t forget we should have done more this season. I told the players on the way here that seasons end so quickly, it is exciting to end another season with a sweet victory in the derby, but one can’t forget thatbwe should have done more”.
On the long unbeaten run in derbies, the 33-year-old midfielder added: “This count is good for you and for statistics, but we are looking at it on a game-by-game basis. Today we spoke with the players and said: ‘Let’s keep this game alive for as long as we can and maybe with some fresh legs for the bench we could decide it. Sometimes, the last game of the season players from the 60th minute have their heads on the morning after with holidays and flights abroad. I made sure to remind everyone not to think of tomorrow but remain professional and focus on the game tonight. We are part of a big club and I am delighted we were professionals all the way till the end”.
