Hapoel Tel Aviv completed an impressive qualification for the third qualifying round of the Europa League at the expense of Ludogorets. In the latest episode of "Zion 3", the program's members identified Omri Altman as the central figure of the round. The episode featured Yonatan Nimrodi, Itzik Shasho, Moshe Ziat, and Eitan Leshem, who complimented the midfielder and the role he played in the "reds'" European achievement.
"In the end, the most impressive qualification, and it pains me to say it, is the qualification of Hapoel Tel Aviv over Ludogorets," said Ziat, a Beitar Jerusalem fan. Shasho added:
"In my eyes, the headline of this round is Altman. Listen, brother, it's amazing. Altman loaded them onto his back and told them: 'Come on, I'll take you for another round in Europe'."
Leshem, a fan of the "reds", addressed the position where Altman should play:
"Altman needs to play at 10, that is Altman's position. Not a striker, not on the left. Altman must play at 10, and he does it amazingly because he simply understands football. He is very smart."
Later, Leshem explained that the style of play against Ludogorets suited Elyaniv Barda's Hapoel Tel Aviv:
"These are the games that are good for Hapoel Tel Aviv. You see that it arrived prepared. These are the games for Falcao, whose goal is to annoy, to annoy, not to let them play."
Nimrodi summarized the qualification and also emphasized Altman's contribution:
"The passage of Hapoel past Ludogorets is a huge passage. Huge, mighty, a great achievement. There is DNA. Against Ludogorets, this is exactly the team that is perfect for Hapoel. They will attack with fury, but in July it is impossible to attack with fury. Hapoel will play low, annoy, steal the goal with the game intelligence of Altman, Turiel, and such, and will pass. In my opinion, if Hapoel gets a team that thinks it is better than it, it will pass it again."
