In the shadow of its deep crisis in the Premier League, where it obtained only one point from the last 21 and got involved in the fight against relegation, Maccabi Netanya forgot for a moment about the troubles with the help of the State Cup, an enterprise in which it reached the final last season. Guy Sarfati’s team beat Poal Yerushalayim 1:2 in overtime and made their way to the quarterfinals against a team that reached it with much better momentum.
Netanya was better in the first half and had trouble creating chances, but benefited from an unfortunate own goal by Shahar Piven, who deflected a simple ball into his own goal right on the brink of the break. Ziv Aryeh brought in his senior players in the second half, such as Matan Hozz who missed and Ofek Biton, who forced overtime with a dramatic goal in the 87th minute. However, the momentum turned in overtime when Itamar Shabiru found Maxim Plekoshchenko, who shot from the air the dramatic 1:2 (107) that sent his team to the quarterfinals. Netanya will wait for the lottery and hope to get some moments of pleasure in the factory where she was so successful last year. Jerusalem, unfortunately, will concentrate on the league, where it is doing quite well in recent times.
