Asaf Heber, the side’s coach spoke about the match that was: “We weren’t that organized in the first half and we didn’t manage to take advantage of our play in the middle of the pitch but thankfully we didn’t give up any goals. We began the second half and gave up a goal but we picked up the pace and the players were able to follow the instructions that were given to them at halftime. We were able to create scoring chances on many of our attacks and we did indeed score on some of them.”
