  • Beitar Jerusalem owner Barak Abramov backed coach Almog Cohen after a disappointing 1-1 draw.
  • The team has dropped points in three of its last four matches.

Beitar Jerusalem's owner, Barak Abramov, has publicly backed coach Almog Cohen following a disappointing 1-1 draw against Ironi Tiberias. The result marked the third time in four games that the team has dropped points, leading to frustration among fans and internal criticism of key players like Omer Atzili and Yarden Shua, as well as striker Sean Weissman.

Abramov addressed concerned fans after the match, acknowledging their disappointment and promising improvement after the upcoming international break. "I understand your pain," Abramov told supporters, "and I promise you it will be better after the break. You will see it already in the Jerusalem derby." He also spent time speaking with numerous fans who contacted him with their concerns.

The team will now enter a three-week break, during which the Israeli national team will play its final Nations League matches. Beitar Jerusalem hopes the week-long rest period for the players will help them return with renewed energy for their post-break derby against Hapoel Jerusalem.

Looking ahead, player Yarden Cohen is expected to return from injury after the break, providing a solution at left-back. Midfielder Daniel Worko, who came on as a substitute, is also expected to become more involved. While foreign players Alexis Serna and Bryan Carballo will remain in Israel, the other foreign players are anticipated to travel abroad for vacation.
