There\u2019s no better feeling than to win it all. We were all in shock. As far as the future, it would be hard to go somewhere else after all this love. I think we should aspire to winning another one, so we have something to look forward to.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p> \t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\">Team captain Guy Pnini said, \u201cIt\u2019s hard to put into words what I\u2019m feeling right now. When I got here [to Rabin Square] I started to realize just how huge our accomplishment is. The whole country is going nuts, roads are closed\u2026 We deserve it, and the credit goes to the professional staff, who told us every single thing Real Madrid was going to do in the Final. Their investment of time and effort, and their diligence, are what brought us to this achievement.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Newly-crowned Euroleague Champions Maccabi Electra Tel Aviv celebrated their achievement with tens of thousands of fans at Rabin Square in Tel Aviv. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":498005,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[54],"tags":[],"custom_author":[],"class_list":["post-498006","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-54"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/498006","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=498006"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/498006\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":498008,"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/498006\/revisions\/498008"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/498005"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=498006"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=498006"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=498006"},{"taxonomy":"custom_author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maccabi.co.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/custom_author?post=498006"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
