Hapoel Ramat Gan, known as the "Ordonim," celebrated a significant 2-0 win over Hapoel Haifa, lifting them to 11th place in the league standings and creating a three-point buffer from the relegation zone. This victory follows a difficult start to the season, including a heavy 4-0 loss to Beitar Jerusalem.
Coach Massai Dego implemented a surprising tactical change, deploying a three-defender formation against Hapoel Haifa. This aggressive and committed approach proved effective, leading to the team's much-needed win. Dego emphasized the importance of fighting and commitment, reminding his players that as a newly promoted team, they must give their all in every match.
The team's midfield performance was notably strong. Goni Naor provided an assist for the second goal, scored by Luan Campos. Serjan Mihajlovic returned to his natural position, and Moshe Semel also contributed significantly despite not being directly involved in the scoring.
David Asanka expressed his excitement after scoring his first goal in the Premier League, a remarkable achievement considering he was playing in the third tier just 18 months prior. Hapoel Ramat Gan's management has shown confidence in the coaching staff and players, understanding the team's transition as a new entrant to the league.
Looking ahead, Hapoel Ramat Gan aims to maintain this momentum in their upcoming crucial match against fellow promoted side Maccabi Petah Tikva.
