Maccabi Tel Aviv keeps rolling on and so does Barak Itzhaki. The striker started the match and scored the Yellow & Blue’s first goal in the 2:0 victory over Bnei Yehuda on Matchday 24 of the Ligat Ha’Al.

Number 10 discussed the fact that Maccabi is now level on points with Hapoel Beer Sheva:
“This was a very important match especially since they are playing after us. Our biggest goal is to continue to win and not look at what they are doing. We have to do our job and we are focusing on just that. We have to continue to improve and keep picking up points.”

On his fitness:
“I felt like I was in good shape at the start of the season. I didn’t play much then but every coach has their way. I am never one to complain. I’m really happy that both Jordi and Lito believe in me and I’m thrilled that I can give back on the pitch.”
