  2. 02The Israeli champions have earned only one point from their first three Europa League matches.
  3. 03Guilherme Smith scored twice for Union Saint-Gilloise, with Raul Floruch and Dylan Aquino also scoring.

Coach Ran Kozuch, also referred to as Ran Kochav by Sport5, noted that his team performed well in the first half but failed to convert their chances. The team collapsed physically in the second half, struggling to match the intensity of their Belgian opponents, who secured the win with two goals from Guilherme Smith, alongside goals from Raul Floruch and Dylan Aquino, and an own goal by Be'er Sheva.

Following the disappointing result, goalkeeper Ofir Marciano acknowledged the poor outcome and emphasized the need for greater aggression and physical conditioning. The team now turns its focus to upcoming matches, including a significant domestic fixture against Maccabi Haifa.
