Dan Glezer, the Maccabi Tel Aviv midfielder looked back at his side’s 4:1 win over Maccabi Netanya while also talking about the excitement of playing his former club:

“I always have a bit of excitement before a match against Maccabi Netanya because I had played there for a season and I really enjoyed it. I had a good season there and they gave me the chance to shine, so I’ll always be thankful for that. They gave us a tough time, but I’m happy we took the three points. We played well and scored some goals and I hope that this will continue.”

Scoring goals and keeping and trying to not concede:
“Even during the minutes when we didn’t play that well we knew how to not give up a goal and score when we were playing better. I’m happy that we scored the third goal in the second half and it’s too bad that we gave up a goal near the end of the contest because we wanted to keep a clean sheet but all in all I’m happy that we came away with the 3 points.”

Giving our all:
“The coach and professional staff prepare us for every game like it’s the State Cup Final and we can’t let up in our training sessions which are at a very high pace. The coach is always demanding that we give more and that includes the competition we have amongst the players for a place on the squad and that when we do play we give 100%. That makes us all want to play the best that we can and give it our all.”

Playing quality football and the desire to win every match:
“I’m happy that we continue to win and that we have a good gap between us and second place. But our goal is to go into every match and play quality football, win and continue to improve match by match. The coach never lets us take our foot off of the gas and we have a very hungry dressing room with a lot of younger players which is great this season.”

We are Maccabi Tel Aviv:
“We want to win every match. We are Maccabi Tel Aviv. We have players who have grown up through the youth system and they are hungry. We want to return the titles back to the club and give the best we can every single match.”
