Squad19 Oct 2026

A late step up for Ori Dahan

At 26 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

Match17 Oct 2026

Maccabi Netanya take the points off Bnei Sakhnin

Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Johan N'Zi falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Eitan Shechter faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Eitan Shechter after 1‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Looking ahead19 Oct 2026

The leaders are next for Bnei Sakhnin

Hapoel Tel Aviv top the table and they are coming into view. Nothing to lose, which is what every manager says before losing.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

The manager makes an example of Mohamed Ghaname

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Somebody else is better right now than Johan N'Zi

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

Looking ahead19 Oct 2026

A reunion for Shaker Abu Husein

He used to wear the other shirt. On Saturday he plays against Hapoel Tel Aviv in this one, and whatever he says this week about it being just another game will be untrue.

Squad19 Oct 2026

A wage question at Bnei Sakhnin

Saná Gomes has done the arithmetic and does not like the answer. Nothing corrodes a squad faster, and no club has ever solved it by explaining the wage structure to a footballer.

Squad14 Sep 2026

6 saves: Mohammed Abu-Nil was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 6 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Transfer targets14 Sep 2026

Santino Primante turns down Bnei Sakhnin

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Ferrocarril Midland keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Transfer targets14 Sep 2026

Bnei Sakhnin rebuffed over Jonathan Jesus

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Cruzeiro have kept their man, and Bnei Sakhnin go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Match12 Sep 2026

A bad afternoon for Bnei Sakhnin against Beitar Jerusalem

1‑2 to Beitar Jerusalem, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words at Bnei Sakhnin training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Johan N'Zi is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

Eitan Shechter: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 1‑2, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

Saná Gomes asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Squad14 Sep 2026

The formation has left Williams Wonah behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Bnei Sakhnin will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Shaker Abu Husein

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Shaker Abu Husein, and the manager let it.
