Maccabi Haifa coach Roni Levy was visibly shocked and angered upon learning of his counterpart Barak Bakhar's resignation during a press conference following Maccabi Haifa's 4-0 loss to Maccabi Netanya on Saturday. Levy, who was the opposing coach, expressed disbelief at the news, stating, "Wow, wow, I have no words. Sad, I'm angry, I don't like it at all." He questioned how one could speak of dismissing a coach who had led the team to three championships. Reporter Yigal Goldstein informed Levy that Bakhar had already announced his resignation. Levy, clearly taken aback, added that Bakhar had achieved great things for Maccabi Haifa and football in general, acknowledging his own potential bias due to his past record with the club.
