Vladimir Ivic, the Maccabi Tel Aviv Head Coach looked back at his side’s 0:0 draw against Hapoel Beer Sheva at the Netanya Stadium:

“I believe that we deserved more than one point and we were the better team during the game. My players fought to the last second.”

Target to win:
“I don’t know what their target was before the game, Our target was to win the game. We created a lot of opportunities in the first half and we controlled the game. I don’t remember that they had a chance, perhaps one. This is football when we should win 3 or 4:0 but we drew 0:0.

Showing character:
“All of my players gave 100% for their part in the championship. They are fighting until the end and all of them showed character.”

Beer Sheva as a future contender for the title:
“For sure they will be as Beer Sheva is a serious team and they won the last three championships. They are a quality team and they will be one of the opponents for the championship next season.”
