Hapoel Tel Aviv and Hapoel Haifa parted ways today (Monday) in a 72:72 tie in a preparatory game held at the Kvutzat Shlomo Hall.
For the Tel Avivians it was their first training game this summer and although they lacked the Zalmanson era that stuck with Corona, they looked excellent and showed in the first half how much potential there is this year in Danny Franco's squad with 26:45.
Elad Hussein's gang was not broken.
The talented Gregory Vargas and Kadim Allen slowly brought their team back and Spencer Weiss further missed a possible three-pointer on the buzzer.
In another game, Hapoel Holon defeated Ness Ziona 55:83.
Rafi Manko excelled with 17 points.
