Maccabi Petah Tikva continues its good run. Carlos Cuéllar's team has won three consecutive league games and stays in the top positions of the table, levelled on points with Maccabi Tel Aviv. This week the victim was Bnei Sakhnin, that lost 0-1.
Apart from the points, we should stress the defensive work showed by Carlos team. The team has not received a goal since the draw (2-2) in the opening day of the league against Beitar Jerusalem. A situation the Spaniard has contributed to.
The Madrid born player has established himself in the line up and has become a key player in the defensive line. Against Bnei Sakhnin, Maccabi Petah Tikva gave no options, despite a stunning strike from the local team that hit the cross bar in stopagge time. In the first half, and in the same goal, Maccabi also hit the post and squandered the chance to score the 0-2.
