		Maccabi Haifa's goalkeeper, Nir Davidovich, will have to undergo a second operation on his knee after re-injuring it in training before Wednesday's win over Belshina Bobruisk of Belarus in the second qualifying round of the European Champions League.
		Davidovich was out of action last season with a similar injury after he damaged his knee 14 months ago in Israel's World Cup qualifier against Spain.
		Davidovich played in the match in Belarus on Wednesday, but tests yesterday showed that his injury is serious and he may very well have to sit out for another entire season, opening the door once more for Dudu Awat, who stepped in as cover last season, to do so again.

	Xtratime Community - Awat to play against Ireland and France
		Definitely in Davidovich's absense Awat should be the keeper, even when Nir was the goalkeeper I thought he could challenge for the spot.
		But again Nir is not perfect either and if he is out there is absolutely nobody else who can do the job as good as he can - Only Shavit Elimelech comes closer and he is totally out of shape this season.
		Dudu's major weakness has always been corners and free kicks, bad locations (remember his CL season), and of course the unbelivable ability to allow huge blunders (although he hasn't done that for a while, but was to blame for a few goals Santander conceded this season).

		Nicknamed 'The Octopus', Davidovich has an impressive pedigree and after falling out of love with the club he has played for all his life, is eyeing a move to Europe and specifically the Premiership.
		Davidovich has played 39 times for his country and 218 times for Haifa, earning a reputation as a top class keeper although his career has been halted several times by serious injury.
		He was Israel's first choice goalkeeper in their recent World Cup campaign and has been starring between the posts for Haifa although a new contract wrangle has turned things sour in recent months and there is a huge question mark over his future there.

	ISRAELI NATIONAL LEAGUE (LEAGUE A), WEEK 16, 1997-98
		Nir Sevilla's accords were the last ones - coming as a substitute for Holtzman after 63 minutes of play, he scored (74) and hit 2 posts; Ashdod could answer with one post of its own, but it wasn't enough even to reduce the score.
		Even so, Ashdod can't judge this game objectively, as Beitar was definitely out of its League; as for Beitar, I see nothing to stop them in their rush to all the titles.
		Before that, it was a 2nd yellow card shown to Moti Kakun (39), a great shot of Armen Shakhagladian parried in a great dive of Davidovich (27, "The Save Of The Week"), and most of all, the opener.

		Haifa's goalkeeper, Nir Davidovich saved the shot but Benayoun scored the rebound.
		He thought he had saved the team, but when he heard on the radio that their nearest rival at the bottom of the table had won their match, meaning that his team would be relegated nonetheless, his tears of joy became tears of grief.
		After his performances for the Israeli national team and Racing Santander, his name was connected with many teams, such as FK Moscow, CSKA Moscow, Arsenal, Liverpool, West Ham United and Bolton Wanderers, where the Israeli Tal Ben Haim plays.
