Hapoel Be'er Sheva Coach Praises Team After Europa League Draw
Hapoel Be'er Sheva played their first Europa League match on Wednesday, drawing 0-0 against Dinamo Zagreb in Romania. Despite being the superior team, the Israeli club was disappointed with the result.
Coach Ran Kochav praised his players, stating they played an excellent game but needed to improve decision-making in the penalty area. He noted that the team created scoring opportunities but failed to convert them.
Kochav also mentioned that the pitch conditions affected the players, with several complaining about the grass. He expressed pride in his team's performance, saying, "I don't remember such superiority of an Israeli club over a team the size of Dinamo Zagreb." He highlighted player Forson's promising performance as a positive sign for future games.
The team will look to build confidence from this performance as they advance in the competition.
