"Why not top 2?": Tzion 3 ranks Kangwa's place among the greats
Ahead of his final match for the champions, the panel members compared the Zambian to Nwakaeme, Rosso, and other stars. Nimrodi: "His specific weight in Be'er Sheva is greater than that of Chery in Haifa."
How great is Kings Kangwa in historical terms? Ahead of his final match in the Hapoel Be'er Sheva uniform this evening (Wednesday, 20:30, Sport2), the 'Tzion 3' panel members Yonatan Nimrodi, Itzik Shasho, Moshe Ziat, and Or Amiga tried to place the Zambian star among the prominent foreign players who have played for the club and in Israeli football.
Amiga opened and said: "In Be'er Sheva, in my opinion, he is top 3." Ziat replied: "Definitely. Why not top 2? Him and Nwakaeme," and Shasho also brought Giovanni Rosso into the discussion: "Is Giovanni not in the discussion?" Ziat answered: "Not for what he did in Be'er Sheva," and Nimrodi added: "I think that in the league, let's say, he is more than Rosso."
Later, Amiga compared Kangwa to Tjaronn Chery: "Since Chery, there hasn't been such dominance." Nimrodi clarified: "I am not saying he is a better player than Chery," and Ziat added: "He is not a better player than Chery." However, Nimrodi emphasized: "His specific weight in Be'er Sheva is greater than the specific weight of Chery in Haifa."
Shasho said: "He took a much worse team and won a championship with it. Understand how far he was from two championships in two years, and a Cup." Ziat added: "And two Cups. He reached the Cup final twice. Unbelievable."
Nimrodi concluded: "If you look in terms of his influence and control in the league, he is the greatest who has been here since Nwakaeme. I think he is greater than Milson and Patati. Certainly."
