Itai Boganim equalized in the 115th minute and sent the game to a duel from the penalty spot, where Roi Ben Shimon missed the last kick and determined that Yossi Aboksis should say goodbye to the cup he won last season with Hapoel Beer Sheva.

Hapoel Haifa, which lacked many players due to dismissals and Corona, also got revenge on its opponent for the loss in the quarterfinals last season.
