Maccabi Tel Aviv dropped two valuable points this evening (Saturday) after being held to a 1-1 draw by Bnei Sakhnin at Bloomfield stadium. At the end of the match, Aitor Karanka faced the media and summed up his teams’ performance on the night.
“It was a poor performance, I said before the game that we had a problem with the way in which we approach games as this is not the first time we concede an early goal or make mistakes and this was just one of those days,” Karanka said: “In the second half we created chances to score but that wasn’t enough.”
On what didn’t work on the night, Karanka said: “I must explain that to my players first and work on it on the training ground. This is time to think about what we are not doing well, think positively and change the mentality.”
On the chances to cut the gap at the top of the table, Karanka said: “We must focus on ourselves as I must explain to the players first on the way in which we want to win. We must bring passion and a strong mentality as I don’t care about the opponents or the points but only on our ability”.
