Mixed emotions for Bnei Reineh after stalemate with Hapoel Haifa, focus shifts to state cup championship.

Maccabi Bnei Reineh experienced mixed emotions following their hard-fought 0-0 draw against Hapoel Haifa on Saturday. While the team felt they could have secured a win, they also acknowledged the merit of holding their own in front of a top-tier opponent and maintaining their winning streak.

It was a successful week overall for Bnei Reineh, having navigated tough matches against formidable opposition: a draw against Maccabi Tel Aviv, a victory over Beitar Jerusalem, and a crucial point against Hapoel Haifa.

Reflecting on their recent state, the team said: “We are pleased to have bounced back from our series of losses. The fact that we feel disappointed after ending with a tie when facing both Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hapoel Haifa speaks volumes. We will continue to give our best in the upcoming matches.”

Looking ahead, Bnei Reineh’s focus now shifts to their upcoming state cup match in the eighth round against Hapoel Petah Tikva.

However, they will be without their Guinea-Bissau player, Sambinha, who will be benched due to accumulating five yellow cards.
