The wait goes on for Hapoel Acre
12 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

A row about effort at Hapoel Acre
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Junior Traoré was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Maccabi Haifa tell Hapoel Acre: Niv Gabay is not for sale
The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.
