Outstanding Actor


Shai Elias, Score: 7

The disappointing actor


Dan Bitton, Score: 3
Not just replaced in the half, Van Leven’s serious mistake to open with him

Just before entering the top playoff, Maccabi Tel Aviv lost two precious points tonight (Saturday) in its race for the championship and as a result also lost the top of the table, after 1: 1 in the hot derby of Tel Aviv against Hapoel in front of 5,000 spectators in the 26th and final round of the regular season .

The Reds, who will play in the lower playoffs, gave their all for the 90 minutes and managed to destroy the city rival in the championship fight, destroying her 10-win streak with which she came into the game, and most importantly for them – destroying the five-game winning streak.

The Yellows looked better in the opening, but the Reds took the lead after a quarter of an hour of play. Omri Altman scored after a great simple save by Shai Elias, who led an outburst on the left wing and handed it to his captain for the lead. The Yellows tried to get the equalizer but Sianda Kolo and Shai Elias stopped kicks from Dor Peretz and Enrique Sborit from the line.

At the start of the second half Patrick Van Leven put Matan Hozaz in place of Dan Bitton and the substitution worked immediately. The Yellows looked much better and in the 51st minute also came on their payroll. Hozaz picked up to the field, Peretz hit, Shtakus top but could not take control and Peretz pushed a foot at just the right moment to score from close range. The Yellows tried to get the winning goal, but were unable to score again when Hozaz was responsible for missing the game in the 80th minute and the Reds celebrated at the end of a precious point.

The ball went up to the field, Shtakos went up to a very bad ball and the shot only went up to Dor Peretz who kicked to the goal but Sianda Kolo who was on the line managed to fend off his foot. The ball reached Seborit who released a powerful kick to the frame from the five-yard box, but this time Elias was on the goal line and top with his foot and prevented an equalizer. Simply amazing
