Hapoel Tel Aviv is planning to exercise its option to extend the contract of goalkeeper Assaf Tzur. While discussions for the extension have not yet begun, the club has indicated its intention to proceed with the option and initiate talks in the coming days. Tzur has been a standout performer for the team recently.
The club's management expressed significant satisfaction with the team's decisive 3-0 victory over Hapoel Jerusalem at Teddy Stadium on Saturday. This win was particularly important for coach Eliniv Barda, aiming to improve the team's away record and build momentum ahead of the Toto Cup final derby against Maccabi Tel Aviv on Thursday.
Despite the strong performance, Barda noted that the team still has areas for improvement, especially in the first half where the game was more evenly matched. However, the team's overall display provided the confidence they sought.
Forward Daniel Dafa also received significant praise for his performance, including a goal described as "the goal of a great striker." This comes after Dafa faced criticism the previous week for a missed opportunity where he chose to shoot instead of passing. The club highlighted his hard work in training and his undeniable talent.
Beyond Dafa's individual effort, the coaching staff was pleased with two other goals that resulted from strong teamwork, emphasizing their preference for collective play over reliance on individual brilliance.
