Maccabi Tel Aviv's defense came under heavy criticism from fans on social media following a series of errors that led to the team conceding a goal against Hapoel Haifa. Despite taking an early lead at Bloomfield Stadium on Saturday, the team allowed Hapoel Haifa to equalize before halftime due to defensive lapses by Ofek Malka and Noam Ben Harush. The team also narrowly avoided conceding another goal, which was ruled offside.
Fans expressed their frustration online, with many singling out Malka for particular criticism. One user, Michael Dahan, stated, "But Malka with a pass that killed Raz Shlomo and created a hole in the defense. A shocking start to the season, he should go to the bench already." Another fan, posting as "mta 8⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️", lamented, "With a defense and goalkeeper like this, we're worth 4th place at most."
Other defensive players, including Ariel Mandi and Kamara, were also mentioned negatively by fans. Nati YellowFeed commented on Ben Harush's performance, saying, "Noam Ben Harush the defender continues in defense - and the bleeding from the eyes continues…" Aviv Yashar simply called Malka's play a "scandal."
Several fans suggested that Malka, and potentially Kamara, were not up to par for a championship-contending team. Jonathan Mudrik suggested it was time for Malka to be benched, while Guy wrote, "You can't win a championship with Malka and Kamara. I know the replacements aren't amazing but at least they aren't so damaging."
