Maccabi Tel Aviv fell to Midtjylland 3-0 as Dju Franculino scored a brace to help the visitors to the win. After a fairly even opening 40 minutes in Serbia which has acted as the yellow-and-blues home away from home since the outbreak of the war, Franculino found the back of the goal just ahead of the break as his volley beat keeper Roi Mishpati for a 1-0 lead. Philip Billing added an insurance marker in the 71st minute while Franculino polished off his brace with a strike less than a quarter hour later to wrap up the victory.

\n\u201cIt\u2019s hard to accept the result,\u201d Maccabi Tel Aviv Head Coach Zarko Lazetic said. \u201cThe performance was very good, except for the result. Before the third goal we had an amazing chance. We have to score. We created a lot against such a tough team, and we deserved more. We need to score goals from the chances we create. We allowed them to score the first and third goals too easily. We\u2019re missing several players, but that\u2019s not an excuse. We have to believe more, and that\u2019s how we\u2019ll win.\u201d

\nOsher Davida also spoke about the defeat, \u201cAt this level, if you don\u2019t score, you\u2019re going to concede, that\u2019s just how it is. If you don\u2019t score, you\u2019ll pay for it. I\u2019m very disappointed with this game. We already have European experience and we need to do better. We have five much tougher matches ahead and we\u2019ll try to give our maximum. Next year, we can\u2019t just settle for compliments again.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
