Lotem Asres, a 19-year-old midfielder on loan from Maccabi Tel Aviv to Hapoel Kfar Shalem, delivered a standout performance on Thursday, scoring twice in a 2-1 victory over Maccabi Bnei Raina, including the winning goal in stoppage time. Following his impressive display, Asres posted a message on social media reflecting on his journey. He stated that people often underestimate the difficulties faced by footballers and emphasized his own resilience through recent hardships, working harder than others when unobserved. Asres also wrote about his preference for quiet and solitude, expressing happiness that his efforts culminated in a significant moment: his debut with Kfar Shalem, marked by two goals, the last in the 95th minute. He concluded with a forward-looking statement, "One day, the people who didn't want us to stay in a certain place will want us to be a part of it." Asres previously scored 20 goals in 58 appearances for Maccabi Tel Aviv's youth team, helping them win the championship in the 2025/26 season, before his loan move to the National League team last month.
