Maccabi FC U16 Blue Stuns Reservoir Utd, Claims Championship


U16 Blue Champions

In a thrilling display of sportsmanship and determination, Maccabi FC's U16 Blue team staged a wonderful early comeback to secure the league championship.


After a narrow loss in their first final game, Maccabi faced a daunting task: defeat Reservoir United by two goals or more to claim the title. Against a larger, more physically imposing opponent, Maccabi's resilience was immediately put to the test. Despite conceding an early goal, the young team refused to be deterred.


With a combination of skill, speed, and unwavering belief, Maccabi quickly equalized and took the lead. However, Reservoir fought back, and at halftime, the teams were locked in a 2-2 stalemate. A crucial halftime pep talk from their coach, coupled with strategic positional changes, ignited Maccabi's fire.


In the second half, Maccabi dominated proceedings, scoring four unanswered goals to secure a 6-2 victory and the league championship. The team's remarkable comeback was a testament to their character, teamwork, and unwavering determination.


Shiloh Franco was the star of the day, scoring two goals, including a spectacular free kick. Benny Segal also contributed two goals, while Guy Feinberg and Elad Galon each found the net once. Galon's goal was assisted by Feinberg.
