The draw with Maccabi Bnei Raina stopped Hapoel Haifa’s winning streak, but tonight (Wednesday) Roni Levy’s team recovered once morest their favorite rival with a third consecutive win over Hapoel Tel Aviv by a crazy 3:4. The host remained in third place in the table, while the guest with a fifth loss in a row in the league, sixth in all frames and nine consecutive games without a win.
Things went in the direction of the host right from the start when in the sixth minute Guy Melamed found Mohamed Kamara with a great wide pass and the winger scored the first with a touch. 8 minutes passed and Liran Serdal doubled the advantage following a nice preparatory action by Kamara and Noam Ben Harosh on the left wing. The most impressive goal came in the 31st minute when Tomer Yosef turned an arcing ball from the corner that beat Emilios Zubas and found the net of the guest. The celebration didn’t end and in the 41st minute Kamara took advantage of a bad pass from Zubas, lifted to the box where Melamed was waiting to score the fourth before going down to halftime.
Tuama brought on Stav Toriel and Ziv Morgan for the second half for his Hapoel Tel Aviv debut, and in the 53rd minute the guest’s improvement was visible when Hisham Laios set up Alan Ozhbolt for the clinching goal. 5 minutes later it was George Diba who scored on Yoav Jarfi’s goal and brought back the color to the cheeks of the guest’s bench. Just when it seemed that Tuama’s team was returning to the game with a whistle for a penalty, Sapir Berman reversed the decision and in the 73rd minute Ran Binyamin was sent off with a straight red card following hitting Tomer Yousfi’s knee with a high leg. Hapoel Haifa also did not finish the game with 11 players when Kamara sent an elbow in front of Ghanaim and saw the second yellow on the way to an early shower. Brian Passey had already added a third goal in extra time (90+4), but the comeback was not completed much to the disappointment of the guest. Toama finished his debut game, which may also be the only one on the lines with the possibility that Yossi Abouxis will arrive soon, with another loss that deepened the crisis in the team.

The host party celebrates at the expense of their taste, this time Kamara set up a deep ball for Ben Harush and the young defender sent a cross pass that reached Sardel who from close range scored the second. Barman Ganaim became the guest’s first goal following defeating Sabag 0:3 to Hapoel Haifa! The most impressive goal so far in the game came precisely from the corner – Yosef Harim from the right side, brilliantly turned a ball that went over Zubas and into the net of the guest 0:4 to Hapoel Haifa! This is already a humiliation for the host – this time Kamara is up to the standard of the brewer following a bad pass from Zubas. The scorer of the first goal lifted to the square, where Melamed was waiting, who pushed the host’s fourth with the outside of his foot in Sami Ofer half-time – 0:4 amazing for Hapoel Haifa. A double substitution of Tuama at the start of the second half: Morgan came on for the debut along with Toriel, Archel and Rohana Toriel tried to surprise Jarfi with a strong kick from outside the area, the goalkeeper of the host responded well and Hapoel Tel Aviv pushed aside to 4:1! Laios with a wide pass left Lauzebolt who kicked a flat ball into Jerfi’s net and perhaps brought back the guest to the game Hapoel Tel Aviv Tsimka with another goal for 4:2! A corner ball met the head of Einbinder who hit back, the ball hit Diva who scored for Jerfi’s goal and brought the guest back to business Kamara through Benjamin and saw the card from Berman Toriel’s free kick surprised Jerfi who at the last moment headed for a corner a shot by Gnaim was cleared off the line by Diba who kicked on Sabeg, and the latter almost added a second own goal by the host who looks panicked.
