The Maccabi Netanya Post

25 Jan 2027
From our football correspondent Steady

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Samu

There were 8 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Market

Maccabi Netanya turn down Beitar Jerusalem for Samu

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

Match

Still nobody has beaten Maccabi Netanya

The unbeaten run reaches 9. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Squad

Samu in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Maccabi Netanya this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Dolev Haziza runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 20. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Words at Maccabi Netanya training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Matías Morales 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.

Squad

Grigory Morozov gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market

Hapoel Raanana expected to open talks for Loay Halaf

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Maccabi Netanya will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Match

Maccabi Netanya and Hapoel Tel Aviv take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

In brief
