Glad we came here as champions, thanks to the players and the coaching staff, we are like a champion club and this is a sign that we know football, but there are many activities outside the field. We are not a football team but a football club and I am very proud of that. I want to thank all the officials and our shadow people in the offices, thank everyone who brought us this far. We did something that had never happened in Israeli football. We created a level that there were no moments like it.”

The CEO Ovadia He said: “There were unforgettable moments in the journey of the Champions League, this is an evening that actually closes the campaign. Also the way we arrived and looked during the campaign, I’m also talking about the aspects of the crowd that accompanied us in emotional moments. We had a very interesting experience on Yom Kippur when the players made Kippur in a synagogue. There were great moments on the field as well, in the victory against Juventus and against PSG in Sami Ofer.”
