Meir Cohen has concluded his tenure as coach of Bnei Eilat, a team in Liga Bet, after only three rounds. The decision comes despite a recent 2-0 victory, following a significant 6-0 defeat to Shikun Hamizrah. The club, described as a "dream team" in Liga Bet, is reportedly beginning to unravel.
Cohen's departure was announced Wednesday morning. The move followed an emergency meeting attended by owners Dudu and Natali Vaturi, and professional manager Ofer Fabian. Fabian himself recently replaced Kobi Refua as professional manager.
Despite the team's overall strong start with three wins in their first four matches, the heavy 6-0 loss appears to have been a turning point. Bnei Eilat currently sits in fifth place in the league standings.
Following Cohen's exit, a list of potential replacements was discussed, including Shahar Weizinger, Nimrod Kostika, Sharon Hitman, and Dor Levy, in that order.
