Hapoel Haifa marked the cup as a goal and wanted to continue the best season in the league on this track as well, but Maccabi Petah Tikva had other plans and it was the one that advanced to the quarterfinals thanks to a convincing 0:3 away game. The Malaves appeared this evening (Tuesday) in a secondary lineup following the painful 4:0 defeat in Bloomfield to Maccabi Tel Aviv, but that did not stop them from providing a great first half and qualifying for the last eight for the third time in a row. They will be in the draw on Thursday at 14:00 while Hapoel Haifa will have to work hard in the top playoffs to try to get the ticket to Europe through the league.
Ran Kozhoch, who reached the final of the cup last season as the coach of Maccabi Netanya, made seven changes to the lineup and gave Liran Hazan his first chance in the 11th, but it was not felt that Maccabi Petah lacked hope or underestimated the enterprise. The guests swept the lawn and got their reward with a great team move that ended with a goal by Salio Gindo (13) and then enjoyed a goal by the young Hazan (19), who also scored a double in the previous round in overtime once morest Maccabi Yavne. Hapoel Haifa mightn’t find an answer and the substitutions didn’t help either, when in addition they lost Hatem Abdelhamid and Dmitri Antilevsky due to injuries. Liran Sardal received a fifth yellow card and will not be able to play once morest Hapoel Beer Sheva on Monday.
