Maccabi Tel Aviv will go up tonight (Sunday, 21:10) to Romema for a meeting against Hapoel Haifa of Elad Hussein in the 19th round of the Winner League. Yannis Sapropoulos’ team arrives for tonight’s game after a convincing 72:89 victory over Maccabi Rishon Lezion last Thursday, and when next Thursday they will meet Zalgiris Kaunas in Lithuania in the Euroleague. The national champion chose not to register Angelo Cloiaro, Tyler Dorsey and Othello Hunter for the meeting.

In the previous game against the Wine City team, Yannis Sapropoulos enjoyed a great game from Ante Žižić that provided 20 points, 9 rebounds and 4 blocks, added to a great defensive ability that limited Guy Goodes’ offense to just 72 points. In the local framework, Maccabi is in great shape, but three of the four meetings held between the two teams ended with a single-digit difference. In fact, only the meeting in the State Cup ended in a double-digit gap with 73:98 in the quarterfinals.

Recovered: Maccabi Tel Aviv defeated Rishon LeZion 72:89

Hapoel Haifa made it difficult for the Yellows in their meetings, but Elad Hussein’s team was hit by the corona and had to stop its activities. However, the Haifa team defeated Hapoel Jerusalem 87: 100 in the arena when fatigue began to give its signals to the players towards the end following the halting of the team’s activities. Against Hapoel Gilboa / Galil things went even harder and the team suffered its sixth loss this season with 96:79 in Gan Ner. Meanwhile, Maccabi Tel Aviv began selling subscriptions to the general public for the team’s games, when in the initial stage priority was given to the team’s subscribers.
