—————————————————-

GOALKEEPER
Joni Hirschowitz (Hertswood Vale) – Outstanding throughout, made save after save where required and topped off his performance with an excellent penalty one handed save

DEFENDERS:
Oli Richardson (Scrabble) – Superb defending, was strong in the tackle and didn’t waste a pass
Richard Adams (Catford & Bromley) – Returning after a year and was outstanding, apart from the goal, looked in total control
Max Misrahi (Maccabi London Lions White) – Put in a great shift at the heart of the Lions defence as side booked their place in the next round of the cup
Saul Tiano (Straw Hat Pirates) – Started at right-back, before donning the gloves after the goalkeeper went off injured and put in a great performance in both positions

MIDFIELDERS:
Adam Hertszaft (Bayern Mincha) – Superb down the left flank, his defensive performance capped off by seeing him get on the scroresheet and claim an assist
Simon Buchler (North London Raiders B) – Brilliant performance for the Raiders, scored twice, including a sumptuous 30-yard chip
Luis Nagten (Faithfold A) – Team’s man-of-the-match was quite simply unplayable. Redbridge couldn’t get near him as he always made the right decision and got a deserved goal
Conor Brand (Temple Fortune A) – Fortune’s man-of-the-match, was everywhere won everything in what a superb, overall performance

STRIKERS:
Chaim Bordon (Faithfold A) – Worked hard up front alone, held the ball up superbly, didn’t give Redbridge time or space and got on the score sheet to boot
Simon Moses (Los Blancos) – A constant menace up front for the Blancos boys, scored twice to help his side turnaround a 2-0 deficit

PLAYER OF THE WEEK:
Luis Nagten (Faithfold A)

PLAYER-MANAGER OF THE WEEK:

Support your Jewish community. Support your Jewish News

Thank you for helping to make Jewish News the leading source of news and opinion for the UK Jewish community. Today we're asking for your invaluable help to continue putting our community first in everything we do.

For as little as £5 a month you can help sustain the vital work we do in celebrating and standing up for Jewish life in Britain.

Jewish News holds our community together and keeps us connected. Like a synagogue, it’s where people turn to feel part of something bigger. It also proudly shows the rest of Britain the vibrancy and rich culture of modern Jewish life.

You can make a quick and easy one-off or monthly contribution of £5, £10, £20 or any other sum you’re comfortable with.

100% of your donation will help us continue celebrating our community, in all its dynamic diversity...

Engaging

Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.

Celebrating

There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.

Pioneering

In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.

Campaigning

Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.

Easy access

In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.

Voice of our community to wider society

The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.

We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
