Tough Break for Tiberias as Key Player Injured Ahead of Upcoming Matches

Injury Update on Stanislav Bilinkiy

Ironi Tiberias is grappling with a significant setback as forward Stanislav Bilinkiy sustained a minor fracture during training yesterday. The injury will sideline him for a minimum of two weeks, meaning he will miss at least three crucial league matches, including the upcoming clash against Bnei Reina on Saturday, November 30 at 18:30, as well as fixtures against Beitar Jerusalem and Maccabi Ashdod.

Impact on Team Selection

Bilinkiy’s absence is likely to prompt head coach Eliran Hodda to reconsider his lineup, which may see Itamar Shabiro and Peter Michael step into pivotal roles on the front line. A decision regarding the defensive formation-whether to adopt a four or five-man defense-has yet to be finalized. Coach Hodda is expected to clarify his strategy and player selection during the team’s final training session tomorrow.

Upcoming Matches

The next three matches for Ironi Tiberias are critical for their league standing:

• Vs. Bnei Reina: November 30, 18:30, Green Stadium
• Vs. Beitar Jerusalem: December 3, 19:45, Green Stadium
• Vs. Maccabi Ashdod: December 8, 19:45, Yaad Stadium

As Tiberias prepares for these challenges, the focus remains on navigating the challenges posed by Bilinkiy’s injury and ensuring optimal performance on the pitch.
