The three main Maccabi Tel Aviv youth clubs return to action on Saturday, after all of the matches were pushed off from last week due to the inclement weather. Below is the full list of games:
Maccabi “Shachar” Tel Aviv
The Under-19 club landed back in Israel after their first Champions League group stage match against Chelsea where they went down to defeat to the reigning European Champions 3:0. Ziv Arie’s side will open up their domestic season at home in the Ramle Stadium against SC Ashdod at 12:00. While in London the coach discussed the importance of making the transition between the European competition and the Israeli league: “There’s no magic formula; just like the match for the first team was difficult, so was ours. The cliche is that the Israeli league is our bread and butter and we know that we have to open the year strong.”
Maccabi “Oded” Tel Aviv
After not playing for two weeks due to inclement weather and a technical victory, the Under-17 club under the direction of Ori Uzan and Leon Asraf heads up north to face Kiryat Shemona at the Municipal Stadium, 11:00. Maccabi “Oded” find themselves at the top of the table with a perfect 2:0 record.
Maccabi “Eli Fuchs” Tel Aviv
The Under-16 team coached by Gadi Brumer and Eliezer Ben Aharon will begin their season tomorrow when they face Hapoel Ramat Gan away, right by the field next to the Ramat Gan Safari at 10:30.
