Hapoel Jerusalem Midfielders Out for Upcoming Matches Due to Injury
Hapoel Jerusalem secured their first points of the season in the last round of the Premier League with a decisive 4-2 victory over Hapoel Kiryat Shmona. The team now shifts its focus to an upcoming match against Ironi Tiberias, a familiar rival from last season's relegation battles.
The Jerusalem squad will be depleted for this crucial game. Key players Vitali Damashkin and Zuberu Sharani will be absent, also missing the subsequent match against Maccabi Petah Tikva, managed by former Hapoel Jerusalem coach Ziv Arie. Damashkin, a forward, likely suffered a groin muscle tear during training, while Sharani is dealing with a strain.
Both players are scheduled for imaging tests by the end of the week to determine the full extent of their injuries. The club hopes for clarity on their recovery timelines as they navigate these important upcoming fixtures.
