From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Damián Ramírez

83 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Bnei Yehuda lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Player ratings

A brace, and Sulayman Ayuba takes the afternoon — 8.05

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Sulayman Ayuba provided it, and the 8.05 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Market

Maccabi Haifa join the queue for Ramzi Safouri

Add another name to the list: Maccabi Haifa have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Ramzi Safouri. The answer from Bnei Yehuda has not changed — yet.

Market

Bnei Yehuda turn down Hapoel Acre for Tal Natcho

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Tempers go at Bnei Yehuda

Sa'ar Fadida was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Tal Natcho is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 18 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Boardroom

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Bnei Yehuda

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad

A late step up for Ben Adadi

At 25 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 4 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.

Match

Bnei Yehuda get the job done against Hapoel Acre

A 2‑1 win over Hapoel Acre, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

In brief
