Eyal Golasa’s excellent season continued on Wednesday as he scored the first goal in Maccabi Tel Aviv’s 2-0 win over Maccabi Haifa at Bloomfield. He was upbeat after the win, and despite the 12-point lead at the top of the standings he said it was still too soon to celebrate another title.

“We really wanted to make the fans happy, we aren’t looking at the gap at the top of the standings. Admittedly, we have taken a significant step towards the title, we have returned well from the break and we need to maintain our form and when the time comes, we will celebrate.”

Golasa said it was still too early to confirm his position at the club next season and said he must still meet with the club, although he wants to stay. “I hope things work out, I like it here,” he said.
