Huge joy at Hapoel Be’er Sheva last night (Wednesday), with celebrations in the dressing room that were not ashamed of winning the cup itself. Eliniv Barda was very honest and said at the end: “It was difficult to prepare the players after the defeat to Maccabi Haifa. We were missing a number of leaders in this game, but we had to show better.”
Today Breda should feel great, because his game management was praised, especially the introduction of Olad Imran Omar and Diener Kinyons, two foreigners who retired and made the difference. Kinyons was injured twice since he arrived and Imran did not integrate too professionally, with the goal against Haifa being the first spark. From the moment both of them entered, the whole game changed and if Breda won the two by the end of the season, then it seems that the whole BS has won.
Breda also provided a very open monologue about Helder Loops: “They made a little too much of a fuss about him. It is true that he made a mistake and paid for it within the club as well, but he suffered more than anyone for the two games he was out. This is his first red in Israel in three years and I think he deserves it More respect and appreciation.”
And in general Lopes, who scored 6 goals this season and added 5 assists, is an interesting question for the rest of the southern team. Isn’t it worth BS to try and extend his contract for another year? Even at the age of 35, as Miguel Vitor said about him, he is the player who runs the most in BS during the game, so his significance is critical for the team.
A good word also goes to Ofir Marciano, who took a 100 percent shot in the 90th minute and his rise at the end of overtime created pressure on the relegation in Netanya Square. “I told him to go up, the bench jumped on me and said, “Are you crazy?”” Barda revealed, “I had a feeling. He’s tall and almost reached the ball.” Gordana also added: “I objected, I thought Marciano should not go up.”

Diner Kinyonssaid at the end: “I’m first of all happy with the victory, it was a super important game for us, and the goal at the end was very exciting because of the distance and the minute. Congratulations are due to the team and we want more. All the kids dream of a moment like this, and it was a dream night. Now to the next goal. It was a special moment, because I’m in a new country with a new culture and a new language and I’m still learning.”
group bond, Roy Gordanaadded: “A game that took all the mental strength, like the second goal we got out of nowhere, a foul that didn’t happen and a penalty. We got two goals that didn’t come. This is maybe the sweetest victory I’ve experienced, but we didn’t do anything, there’s still the final. We have a game league soon and we will prepare for it as much as possible.”
Gordana also said: “I was against Marciano going up for the last corner, but Eliniv Berda decided yes. He was close to the ball, the Holy One, blessed be He, decided that this ball would go in and the rest is history. I have a lot to say about this season, this is not the time for summaries. We have more One game in the cup and a few more in the league, we will do our best until we reach the final of God.”
