Crazy, huge, spectacular game, any setting you choose will suit the great match tonight (Saturday) between Bnei Yehuda and Hapoel Haifa, which without a doubt was the best game so far in the eighth round of the State Cup. Revolutions, 6 goals, opportunities, a lackluster pace , And in the end a tense penalty shootout at the end of which Hapoel Haifa celebrated immigration to the quarterfinals.
The thing is, not all fans could have seen this crazy game. It’s not enough that Round H is spread over 4 days, for reasons that are probably related to the broadcast franchisee, and takes all the desire out of this magical enterprise called the State Cup (this game was broadcast on a paid channel, and it’s a shame these games are not open to the public).
Hapoel Haifa took the first lead from a goal with a shot by Case Ganem, but Dan Mori and Shai Mazor turned the score around. Ido Shachar then equalized and sent the game into overtime. The physiotherapists went into action, and after a short break, the game went into overtime, but instead of seeing the decline of both teams we got another 30 minutes just to lick our fingers.
Amit Zanti arranged the third of Bnei Yehuda Achki who galloped 50 meters until he scored and it seemed that Yossi Aboksis’ team was on the way to victory, but Hapoel Haifa did not break, and the boy Itai Boganim, scored a wonderful goal and equalized. A minute before the whistle Autumn Finish almost scored but Ran Kadosh provided a save and sent the game to the penalty spot, where he stopped Roi Ben Shimon’s fifth penalty, and arranged for his team the ticket to the next stage.
