Maccabi Tel Aviv lost 3-1 to Maccabi Netanya in the State Cup final. The loss of the leader is embarrassing and should not have happened, writes Yossi Ben-Ghiat.
The Yellows have suffered a series of crises this season, writes Ben- Ghiat, which have been dwarfed by the success of Maccababi Haifa. The last two days in the cup explain why this is happening, he says. The fight for the championship will not, of course, be decided on these things, but consciousness also has value.
